Fighting for control in an unpredictable life - a qualitative study of older persons' experiences of living with chronic dizziness.
Författare
Summary, in English
Dizziness in older people is associated with disability and reduced quality of life. Few studies have investigated how daily life is affected from the older person's perspective. Identifying barriers and resources in daily life could guide health care in how to direct efficient interventions. The aim of this study was to explore older persons' experiences of living with chronic dizziness.
