Title: Spousal bereavement, mortality and risk of negative health outcomes among older adults: a population-based study Document date: 2020_4_19
ID: f1br2h6p_109
Snippet: We used a recently validated multimorbidity assessment tool to measure the overall burden of chronic diseases at baseline. The methodology proposed by Calderón-Larrañaga et al. (2017) allows for capturing a comprehensive set of chronic diseases that either have a long-lasting impact on older adults' autonomy and quality of life or require enduring contacts with healthcare services. This instrument is therefore well suited to describe the burden.....
Document: We used a recently validated multimorbidity assessment tool to measure the overall burden of chronic diseases at baseline. The methodology proposed by Calderón-Larrañaga et al. (2017) allows for capturing a comprehensive set of chronic diseases that either have a long-lasting impact on older adults' autonomy and quality of life or require enduring contacts with healthcare services. This instrument is therefore well suited to describe the burden of chronic multimorbidity in our study population and to address the issue of confounding by indication. We identified chronic diseases by analysing all diagnoses reported for inpatient and specialized outpatient admissions during the 5 years prior to the index date, as well as specific medications dispensed during the same period.
