Abstract

Objective: To survey the frailty of elderly outpatients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction and some related factors. Methods: Cross-sectional descriptive study on 240 elderly outpatients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction at the Geriatric clinics, Cardiology clinics, Thong Nhat Hospital and University Medical Center from July 2023 to April 2024. Results: The study included elderly outpatients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction. The rate of frailty was  37,1% according to FRAIL criteria. Factors associated with frailty in outpatients heart failure with reduced ejection fraction include age ≥ 75 (OR = 4.69 95% CI 2.38 - 9.21; p < 0.001), chronic kidney disease (OR = 2, 55 95% CI 1.31 – 4.96; p= 0.006), NYHA class III (OR = 5.26 95% CI 2.48 – 11.2; p< 0.001). Conclusions: Frailty prevalence in elderly outpatients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction was 37.1%. Age ≥ 75, chronic kidney disease, NYHA class III were factors related to frailty
