Objective.
To examine the association between type of multimorbidity and CAM use among adults with multimorbidity.
Methods.
The current study used a cross-sectional design with retrospective data from 2012 National Health Interview Survey.
Multimorbidity was classified into two groups: (1) adults with coexisting physical and mental illnesses and (2) adults with two or more chronic physical illnesses only.
CAM use was measured using a set of 18 variables.
Logistic regression and multinomial logistic regressions were used to assess the association between the type of multimorbidity and ever used CAM, CAM use in the past 12 months, and type of CAM.
Results.
Overall, 31.2% of adults with coexisting physical and mental illnesses and 20.1% of adults with only physical illnesses used CAM in the past 12 months.
Adults with coexisting physical and mental illnesses were more likely to ever use CAM (AOR = 1.68, 95% CI = 1.49, 1.90), use CAM in the past 12 months (AOR = 1.32, 95% CI = 1.15, 1.52), and use mind-body therapies in the past 12 months (AOR = 1.36, 95% CI = 1.16, 1.59) compared to adults with only physical illnesses.
Conclusion.
Multimorbidity of chronic physical and mental illnesses was associated with higher CAM use.
