摘要
目的：本研究旨在探討臺灣老人心血管慢性病與心血管多重慢性病之相關因素。方法：本研究以衛生福利部國民健康署2013年國民健康訪問調查資料做分析，自變項為基本人口學特性、預防保健與健康行為，依變項為心血管慢性病與多重慢性病。先以卡方檢定描述各變項分佈情形，再以複邏輯斯迴歸分析，找出獨立影響慢性病與多重慢性病的影響因素。結果：本研究以2,021位65歲（含）以上老人為研究對象，其中662位（32.76%）有一種心血管慢性病，749位（37.06%）有多重心血管慢性病。影響老人心血管慢性病與多重慢性病因素，有75歲以上、女性、沒有工作、體重過重或肥胖等。結論：影響老人心血管慢性病與多重慢性病的因素為年齡、工作、體重與性別。

Objectives: This study aims to explore the factors related to chronic cardiovascular diseases and multiple chronic cardiovascular diseases in the elderly in Taiwan. Methods: This study analyzed data from the 2013 National Health Interview Survey conducted by the National Health Administration of the Ministry of Health and Welfare. The independent variables were basic demographic characteristics, preventive health care and health behaviors, and the dependent variables were chronic cardiovascular diseases and multiple chronic cardiovascular diseases. Firstly, the distribution of each variable is described in terms of frequency, percentage and p value. Secondly, multiple logistic regression analysis is used to find out the influencing factors that independently affect chronic diseases and multiple chronic diseases. Results : This study took 2,021 elderly people over 65 years old as the research subjects. Out of these, 662 (32.76%) had chronic cardiovascular diseases, and 749 (37.06%) had multiple chronic cardiovascular diseases. In terms of chronic cardiovascular diseases and multiple chronic cardiovascular diseases affecting the elderly, there are factors such as being over 75 years of age, female, unemployed, and being overweight or obese. Conclusions : The factors affecting the elderly with chronic cardiovascular diseases and multiple chronic cardiovascular diseases are age, work, weight and gender.
