Özet:

 


Frailty is defined as “medical syndrome with multiple causes and
contributors that is characterized by diminished strength, endurance, and
reduced physiologic function that increases an individual’s vulnerability for
developing increased dependency and/or death. An assessment of Frailty in
various populations, especially in the elderly population, has medical
outcomes. The present
work deals with the study of frailty in the beneficiaries of Batumi St.
Catherine Nursing Home of. In total 70 beneficiaries of both sexes, were over
60 years of age, were investigated. Frailty phenotypes were assessed within
five criteria: weight loss, self-reported exhaustion, weakness, slowness, and
low physical activity (8). The existence of three and more criteria from these
listed criteria are assessed as frail phenotype; the existence of one or two
criteria - prefrail, and if a person does not have any criteria, it is assessed
as robust. 25.7% of the elder beneficiaries turned out to be frailty phenotype,
12,9% - prefrail phenotype, 61.4% - healthy or
sustainable. Total frailty phenotype was identified in 18 samples, including 11
women and 7 men. Hard cognitive disorders from the 18 frailty phenotypes
were found in only 3 individuals. Among the three most commonly researched
populations in the frailty criteria are low physical activity, weakness, and
slowness. In the group of people older than 80 years, the syndrome of frailty
was higher (35.7%) than in the group of people older than 60 years. (19%). The
gender difference was not observed.
