Objective: To relate between functional dependence level (FD) and depression in older adults seen in the outpatient clinic of the Hospital Essalud Abancay 2024. Methodology: A descriptive correlational study was carried out in older adults seen in the outpatient clinic of the Abancay´s Hospital who were administered the Katz index questionnaire for FD and the geriatric depression scale (EDG-5). The analysis was performed in STATA 15.0 with a 95% confidence level and p-value<0.05. Pearson, Spearman and chi-square tests were used according to the type of related variables. Results: Of the 96 elderly persons, half of whom were women (50%), depression was found in 62% of cases, functional dependence in 96.87%; where DF predominated, 72.04% presented total DF. Among the characteristics, it was found that age and depression were negatively correlated with FD (Pearson=-0.618, p<0.001;rho=-0.227, p=0.026) and ( rho=- 0.247, p=0.015) respectively; marital status in couple was related to lower severity score (chi2=2. 147, p=0.342; rho=-0.371, p<0.001), just as the presence of social support (rho=- 0.072, p<0.001), disability (rho=-0.491,p<0.001) and chronic illness (rho=-0.238, p=0.019) was significantly associated with functional dependence score. Conclusion: The majority of the older adult population had FD, and 63,4% had depression. The functional dependence level is related with depression.
