29 de may. de 2024 · The Study of Osteoporotic Fractures (SOF) frailty index is a simple assessment instrument designed to identify phenotypic frailty in community-dwelling older adults presenting to busy primary care practice settings.
Low muscle mass (dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry) was categorised as low appendicular lean mass (ALM; predefined <19.75 kg) or low ALM-to-BMI ratio (predefined <0.789). Frailty status was assessed using the components of weight loss, inability to rise from a chair and poor energy (SOF index).
Las clases de fragilidad demostraron las asociaciones esperadas. El Odds ratio (ajustado por la edad) para la mortalidad (intervalo de confianza del 95%) asociado a la clase frágil fue del 3,2 (1,0-10,2) para las mujeres y del 8,3 (3,1-22,1) para los hombres. Conclusiones.
27 de ene. de 2010 · The Study of Osteoporotic Fractures (SOF) index, as described by Ensrud and colleagues, 2 is an attempt to develop an instrument that detects this same population of at-risk individuals, albeit using a more easily applied diagnostic tool.
phenotype model to classify frailty, which consists of five physical components: unintentional weight loss, low grip strength, self-reported exhaustion, slow walking speed, and low physical activity. (5) Frailty can be lessened by exercise-based interventions. (6)
a valid, reliable measure of the physical frailty phenotype meeting criteria proposed by Rockwood for a successful denition of frailty [6, 20]. Several studies have found that the SOF index is an independent predictor of adverse out-comes in community-dwelling older adults [ 21–23]. In addi-
The FRAIL scale includes five components: fatigue, resistance, ambulation, illness, and loss of weight. 14, 15 FRAIL scale scores range from 0 to 5 (one point for each component; 0 = best to 5 = worst) and represent frail (3–5), prefrail (1–2), and robust (0) health status.
