We were interested in determining if a relationship existed between physical function and CAN scores. Method: Seventy-four older (71 \u00b1 1 years) male Veterans underwent assessment of CAN score and subjective (Short Form\u201336 [SF-36]) and objective (self-selected walking speed, four square step test, short physical performance battery) assessment of physical function. Results: Approximately 25% of participants self-reported limitations performing lower intensity activities, while 70% to 90% reported limitations with more strenuous activities. When compared with cut points indicative of functional limitations, 35% to 65% of participants had limitations for each of the objective measures. Any measure of subjective or objective physical function did not predict CAN score. Conclusion: These data indicate that the addition of a physical function assessment may complement the CAN score in the identification of high-risk patients.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/0733464817690677","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,1,30]],"date-time":"2017-01-30T01:47:48Z","timestamp":1485740868000},"page":"412-423","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":11,"title":["Physical Function Does Not Predict Care Assessment Need Score in Older Veterans"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"38","author":[{"given":"Monica C.","family":"Serra","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Baltimore VA Medical Center, MD, USA"},{"name":"University of Maryland School of Medicine, Baltimore, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Odessa","family":"Addison","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Baltimore VA Medical Center, MD, USA"},{"name":"University of Maryland School of Medicine, Baltimore, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jamie","family":"Giffuni","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Baltimore VA Medical Center, MD, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Lydia","family":"Paden","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Baltimore VA Medical Center, MD, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Miriam C.","family":"Morey","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Durham VA Medical Center, NC, USA"},{"name":"Duke University, NC, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Leslie","family":"Katzel","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Baltimore VA Medical Center, MD, USA"},{"name":"University of Maryland School of Medicine, Baltimore, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2017,1,29]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-0733464817690677","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1164\/ajrccm.166.1.at1102"},{"key":"bibr2-0733464817690677","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Agha Z., Lofgren R.
