Abstract

Objective: Describe the current situation of Frailty syndrome (HCDBTT) in elderly outpatients and some related factors. Research subjects and methods: The study was conducted using a cross-sectional descriptive method at the National Geriatric Hospital, from August 2022 to July 2023 on 384 patients aged 65 and older undergoing surgical treatment stay. Frailty syndromes were identified using the Modified Short Emergency Geriatric Assessment (mSEGA) toolkit. Research results: A total of 384 patients with an average age of 74,89 ± 7,26 years. The proportion of patients with Frailty is 19.5%, Very Frailty is 9.9%, Not Frailty is 70.6%. Cognitive decline, ADL daily functional dependence, malnutrition, and sarcopenia were associated with Frailty syndrome (p < 0.05). Conclusion: Frailty syndrome is associated with ADL daily functional dependence, malnutrition, and sarcopenia.
