Hace 2 días · In cases of cognitive impairment, there was a reported 32% increase in fall rates before adjustment, which was refined to a 14% increased risk after considering other factors. Similarly, frailty was initially associated with a 25% increase in fall rates, but adjustments modified this to a 14% increased risk.
Hace 1 día · Although several methods exist to quantify frailty 21, the 5-item modified Frailty Index (mFI-5) has gained prominence in recent years due to its accepted validity and simplicity 16,17,18,19,20.
Hace 5 días · In this population of Iranian older adults, prevalence of cognitive frailty was consistent with its estimated mean global prevalence. Age, gender, illiteracy, comorbidities, depression and IADL disability were associated with cognitive frailty. Further research is required to develop screening tools and prevention strategies.
Hace 4 días · An assessment of patient frailty provides a more accurate picture of the patient's individual vulnerability than age and multimorbidity alone, and is therefore a useful aid in making clinical decisions in hospitals.
Hace 2 días · Both univariable and multivariable logistic regression were employed to screen and identify the risk factors predisposing patients to postoperative complications. Results: A total of 272 older adults were included in the study ultimately. The frailty detection rates of TFI and mFI-11 were 15.8% (43/272) and 10.7% (29/272) respectively.
Hace 2 días · Therefore, the aim of this study was to determine the possible association of genetic and oxidative stress biomarkers with frailty status (physical and cognitive) in older adults. Thus, a cross-sectional study was conducted in a population of 154 Spanish older adults (aged 65 and over) classified according to their physical (phenotype criteria) and cognitive frailty status.
Hace 5 días · Cognitive screening is the first step towards appropriate identification and management of older people with confusion presenting to hospital. Cognitive screening should be performed in conjunction with delirium risk screening.
