| Summary: | This study seeks to define and examine the concept of subjective health status
among the frail elderly Korean men. Using the concept analysis framework by
Walker and Avant, 10 articles related to the subjective health status of frail
elderly adults were selected for this study. The results of this study indicate
that the antecedents are “State of vulnerable health among the seniors aged 65
or elderly” and “Elderly themselves are aware of their current health
conditions”. The attributes are “Health promotional behavior”, “Efforts to
maintain physical, mental and social well-being” and “Striving to achieve
health goals”. The consequences are confirmed as “State where no complications
occur” and “Improvement of life satisfaction”. This study is significant in
that it clarifies the concept and attributes of frail elderly, reflecting the
characteristics and objectives of nursing. |
