N2 - Purpose: The purpose was to clarify the relationship between the elderly providing nursing care and care to their spouse, etc., and the maintenance of their health three years later. Method: The subjects of analysis were the respondents to the “Daily Living Area Needs Survey” conducted in 2014 and 2017 in Nanto City, Toyama Prefecture, for all elderly people aged 65 and over. Recovery of 79.3% and 78.5% was obtained, respectively. Of these, 6,088 people who answered that they did not receive long-term care / assistance in the 2014 survey and who also responded to the 2017 survey or were confirmed dead by the time of the survey were analyzed. Regarding the status of health maintenance, which is an outcome, those who answered that they did not receive long-term care / assistance in the 2017 survey were those who answered that they were receiving some kind of long-term care, and those who were confirmed dead. Was also defined as health loss. Then, while grasping who the respondents provide nursing care and care to, how the presence or absence and whether or not the spouse is included and how to maintain health after 3 years are related. This was analyzed using multiple logistic regression analysis. Result: Even if various indicators such as basic attributes and health and living functions are adjusted, in the case of men, there is no other person to care for or care for, but the person who provides care or care includes a spouse. The odds ratio for maintaining health after 3 years was 1.67 (P = 0.004), and the odds ratio for those who did not include a spouse as a caregiver or care provider was 1.62 (P = 0.052). On the other hand, in the case of women, it was 1.42 (P = 0.079) and 1.44 (P = 0.045), respectively. Conclusion: It is suggested that men have a positive tendency toward maintaining good health when their spouse is included in the caregiver and caregiver, and when women do not include their spouse in the caregiver and caregiver.
