简要总结
Screen all those> 65 years of age admitted to the Short Stay Unit for frailty, and detect those who are potentially fragile.
详细描述
Demographic change has led to a change in the profile and age of hospitalized patients, an increase in age and in patients with multiple chronic diseases and more complex health needs is observed.
Frailty is known to impact patient health outcomes with medical and surgical procedures. Thus, frailty is correlated with a greater presence of delirium, longer stays, a greater requirement for complementary examinations, a greater presence of mortality and other post-surgical complications, more dependence, more risks derived from hospitalization, and a greater need for convalescence after discharge.

The Frail Vig index ("VIG" is the spanish/catalan abbreviation for Comprehensive Geriatric Assessment) is a new, more concise Frailty index for rapid geriatric assessment, which contains 22 simple questions that assess 25 different deficits. The Frail VIG index score assesses the degree of frailty as a continuous variable. The value of the Frail VIG index is between 0 (absence of frailty) and 0.7 (severe frailty)
