註釋"The Australian Longitudinal Study on Women's Health (ALSWH) is a longitudinal population-based survey examining the health of over 57,000 Australian women. ALSWH follows women in four age cohorts born in 1921-26, 1946-51, 1973-78, and 1989-95. Women in the first three cohorts were first surveyed in 1996 and then resurveyed on approximately a three-yearly basis (starting with the 1946-51 cohort in 1998, the 1921-26 cohort in1999, and the 1973-78 cohort in 2000; Dobson et al., 2015). Since 2011, the 1921-26 cohort has been surveyed each six months. Women in the 1989-95 cohort were recruited in 2012-3, and have been surveyed annually, until 2017(Loxtonet al., 2018). The study takes a comprehensive view of all aspects of health (not just reproductive and sexual health) throughout women's lifespan. In this report we examine the development of multimorbidity (2 or more chronic conditions) across the four ALSWH cohorts. We also examine the impact of multimorbidity on women's quality of life, and the use of health services. Qualitative data available from the women's comments on their surveys were also examined to give voice to the experience of women with multimorbidity."--Executive summary.
