Frailty in Older Adults: Evidence for a Phenotype

Linda P. Fried, Catherine M. Tangen, Jeremy Walston et al. · 1 Mar 2001

BACKGROUND: Frailty is considered highly prevalent in old age and to confer high risk for falls, disability, hospitalization, and mortality. Frailty has been considered synonymous with disability, comorbidity, and other characteristics, but it is recognized that it may have a biologic basis and be a distinct clinical syndrome. A standardized definition has not yet been…

Untangling the Concepts of Disability, Frailty, and Comorbidity: Implications for Improved Targeting and Care

Linda P. Fried, Luigi Ferrucci, Jonathan Darer et al. · 1 Mar 2004

Three terms are commonly used interchangeably to identify vulnerable older adults: comorbidity, or multiple chronic conditions, frailty, and disability.

Nevertheless, the precise etiology of inflammaging and its potential causal role…

The Loss of Skeletal Muscle Strength, Mass, and Quality in Older Adults: The Health, Aging and Body Composition Study

Bret H. Goodpaster, Sang‐Won Park, T. B. Harris et al. · 1 Oct 2006

BACKGROUND: The loss of muscle mass is considered to be a major determinant of strength loss in aging. However, large-scale longitudinal studies examining the association between the loss of mass and strength in older adults are lacking. METHODS: Three-year changes in muscle mass and strength were determined in 1880 older adults in the Health, Aging…

Frailty in Relation to the Accumulation of Deficits

Kenneth Rockwood, Arnold Mitnitski · 1 Jul 2007

This review article summarizes how frailty can be considered in relation to deficit accumulation. Recalling that frailty is an age-associated, nonspecific vulnerability, we consider symptoms, signs, diseases, and disabilities as deficits, which are combined in a frailty index. An individual's frailty index score reflects the proportion of potential deficits present in that person, and indicates…
