Frailty status and/or frailty severity were evaluated using the frailty phenotype (FP), the clinical frailty scale (CFS), the 14-item frailty index based on a comprehensive geriatric assessment (FI-CGA), and a 47-item frailty index (FI).Results: WSEO length of sway (FP, CFS, FI-CGA, FI), WSEO area of sway (FP, CFS, FI-CGA, FI), and WSEO mean speed (FP, CFS, FI-CGA, FI), WSEC length of sway (FP, FI-CGA, FI), WSEC area of sway (FP, FI-CGA, FI) and WSEC mean speed (FI-CGA, FI), NSEO length of sway (FP, FI-CGA, FI), NSEO area of sway (FP, CFS, FI-CGA, FI), and NSEO mean speed (FP, CFS, FI-CGA, FI), NSEC length of sway (FI-CGA, FI), NSEC area of sway (FI-CGA, FI) and NSEC mean speed (FI-CGA, FI) were associated with the frailty status and/or severity across the four different frailty instruments (all p < 0.05, respectively).Conclusion: Greater fluctuations in CoP with increasing frailty status and/or severity were a uniform finding across various major frailty instruments.Keywords: frailty instruments, balance quality parameters, older peopleSchülein SSieber CCGaßmann KGRitt MDove Medical Pressarticlefrailty instrumentsbalance quality parametersolder peopleGeriatricsRC952-954.6ENClinical Interventions in Aging, Vol Volume 15, Pp 451-467 (2020) |
