Résumé
This study examines potential risk and protective factors associated with going outdoors frequently among older persons, and whether these factors vary according to physical limitations. Cross-sectional analysis. Community-dwelling participants of the Lausanne cohort Lc65+ in 2016, aged 68-82 years (n=3419). Associations between going outdoors frequently and physical limitations, sociodemographic, health, psychological and social variables were examined using logistic regression models. Subgroup analyses were performed according to the severity of physical limitations. 'Going outdoors frequently' was defined as going out ≥5 days/week and not spending most of the time sitting or lying down. Three in four (73.9%) participants reported going outdoors frequently. Limitations in climbing stairs (adjusted OR (AdjOR) 0.61, 95% CI 0.47 to 0.80) and walking (AdjOR 0.24, 95% CI 0.18 to 0.31), as well as depressive symptoms (AdjOR 0.58, 95% CI 0.47 to 0.70), dyspnoea (AdjOR 0.60, 95% CI 0.48 to 0.75), age (AdjOR Physical limitations are associated with decreased odds of going outdoors frequently. However, social characteristics appear to mitigate this association, even among older persons with severe limitations. Further studies are needed to determine causality and help guide interventions to promote going outdoors as an important component of active ageing.
