Abstract

Multimorbidity research has increased progressively, especially in older adults, due to its major consequences such as mortality and reduced functional capacity. The objective of the study was to identify multimorbidity groups and how single, paired, and groups of multiple chronic conditions influence functional status in institutionalized older adults.
