Table 4.

Multivariable Models for the Association Between ADL Limitations, Cognitive Impairment, Depression and EOL Care (N = 420)

End of life care measure, OR (95% CI) Length of stay
Hospitalization ICU Ventilation Ratio (95% CI)
Help with ≥1 ADLs 1.13 (0.68–1.88) 1.39 (0.85–2.28) 0.99 (0.54–1.81) 1.22 (0.95–1.56)
Cognitive impairment 0.75 (0.46–1.24) 0.55 (0.33–0.91)* 0.73 (0.39–1.36) 0.77 (0.59–1.02)
Depression 0.83 (0.49–1.40) 0.96 (0.57–1.61) 1.06 (0.55–2.03) 1.11 (0.86–1.44)

Note: ADL = activities of daily living; CI = confidence interval; EOL = end of life; ICU = intensive care unit; OR = odds ratio. Models controlled for year of death, age at death, gender, nativity, language of interview, education, marital status, living alone, and self-reported diabetes, heart failure, stroke, and cancer.
