- Abstract
There are limited data on combinations of co-morbid conditions to guide efforts to improve therapeutic strategies in patients with multiple co-morbid conditions. To some extent, this may be due to limited data on combinations of co-morbid conditions in patient groups. Our goal was to determine the most common co-morbid medical conditions in older residents of U.S. nursing homes and identify sex differences in prevalences and changes across the agespan of nursing residents.
