Overview
Brief Summary
Pursuant to our previous longitudinal study (ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT02073370) in geriatric outpatients cooperated with the Department of Family Medicine, Department of Geriatrics and Gerontology, National Taiwan University Hospital, this study will be conducted to examine the impacts of the specific co-morbidities and ageing psychology on the outcomes of frailty/sarcopenia syndrome. The thresholds of specific chronic disease will be reviewed after frailty being considered in the elderly with co-morbidity condition. In addition, the conceptual framework and corresponding measuring instrument of "mental frailty" will be expected developed.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Operation instrument of mental frailty for older adults
Time Frame: Up to 2 years
The psychological adaptation to aging is a dynamic process. The dynamic process and the Selection-Optimization-Compensation process will have their effect on the actual coping actions in everyday life. The instruments will be set up to evaluate the aging psychology process
Secondary Outcomes
- Compare the well chronic disease control and inappropriate condition on the dynamic frail transitions in ambulatory geriatric outpatients(up to 4 years)
