Prevalence of Frailty Among People Aged 75 and Over Living at Home

Completed

• Conditions: Frailty

• Registration Number: NCT05163457
• Lead Sponsor: Université de Reims Champagne-Ardenne

Brief Summary

The aging of population lead to study ways to prevent dependence. Frailty is a precursor to dependence which can be reversible. In the literature, estimate of prevalence of frailty is highly variable depending on the frailty definition, the population studied and the screan tool used. In fact, many scales to measure frailty have emerged without gold standard.

The SEGAm showed its usefulness in aged patients living at home.

Detailed Description

The aim of the study is to describe prevalence of frailty in patients aged of 75 and more living at home.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Frailty	Day 0	Frailty evaluated using SEGA modified scale (SEGAm). SEGAm includes 13 items (coded from 0 to 2) to obtain a global score out of 26 points. Patients with a score less than or equal to 8 are considered not fragile. Patients with a score between 8 and 11 are considered fragile. Patients with a score greater than or equal to 11 are considered very fragile.
