Description
Nayeon Kim and Barbara Resnick test, in twenty twenty-four, whether mind and pain drugs link to body function in hospital. Their sample is older adults with dementia in the first two days of a hospital stay. Drugs checked include those for mood, sleep, seizures, and pain. The team held age, sex, race, illness, thought, and pain equal in their model, and used path analysis.
Most of the sample took at least one mind drug, and about one in five took a pain drug. Neither drug type linked to function. Instead, more illness, worse thought, and more pain linked to less function. The result fits some past work, the authors note.
