Improving Health Outcomes in Frail Elderly: A Comprehensive Review of Measures and Recommendations

Nazim N Haider

Abstract: This paper highlights the significance of frailty in elderly individuals and emphasizes the importance of early identification and intervention to improve health outcomes. By addressing gaps in frailty assessment, implementing standardized criteria, and leveraging real - world datasets, healthcare providers, researchers, and policymakers can enhance the accuracy of frailty measurements, tailor interventions, and ultimately enhance the quality of care for frail individuals. By adopting a multidimensional approach to frailty assessment and involving older adults in the process, a more holistic and personalized care strategy can be developed to meet the unique needs of individuals living with frailty.
