S.F. Chang, H.C. Lin, C.L. ChengJ Nurs Scholarsh. 2018;50(4):383-391 This research explored the relationship between the stages of frailty and risk for hospitalization in older adults and evaluated the risk for hospitalization among the elderly in relation to various frailty assessment indexes. |
E. Lopez-Garcia, K.A. Hagan, T.T. Fung, et al.Am J Clin Nutr. 2018;107(5):763-771 A Mediterranean-style diet pattern was associated with reduced risk of frailty syndrome in older women with type 2 diabetes. |
J. de Kerimel, N. Tavassoli, C. Lafont, et al.J Frailty Aging. 2018;7(2):120-126 This project shows the feasibility to implement a care model in the community. It permitted a large identification of frail elderly people in the city population, insuring their assessment and clinical follow up to maintain their capacities and referring them to social services. |
E. Escourrou, M. Herault, S. Gdoura, et al.Fam Pract. 2018 May 24. doi: 10.1093/fampra/cmy043. [Epub ahead of print] Becoming frail is a major turning point in patients' life course. Coordinated multiprofessional management that takes account of patients' perceptions could help in negotiating a feasible care plan adapted to the patient's needs. |
W.M. Looman, I.N. Fabbricotti, J.W. Blom, et al.BMC Geriatr. 2018;18(1):84 The heterogeneous population of frail older people has differing needs and faces different health issues that should be considered to tailor care interventions. Evaluation research of these interventions should acknowledge the heterogeneity of frailty by profiling. |
U.K. Sahin, N. Kirdi, E. Bozoglu, et al.Int J Rehabil Res. 2018 Apr 3. doi: 10.1097/MRR.0000000000000285. [Epub ahead of print] The study showed that low-intensity exercise was as effective as high-intensity exercise for most parameters tested. Exercise training is useful for the prevention or treatment of frailty, as it improves functioning by contributing positively to muscle strength, gait, balance and quality of life. |
