Results
In this study, we randomly sampled 300 participants who met the inclusion criteria from 12 LTC facilities; 8 were unwilling to complete the consent form, and 49 were unwilling to complete the questionnaire due to emotional factors. Finally, 243 participants were enrolled in the study. Among them, 14.8% (n = 36) had upper extremity contractures, 64.2% (n = 156) had lower extremity contractures, and 21.0% (n = 51) had upper and lower extremity contractures. The demographic characteristics of this study are provided in Table 1.
