Overview
Introduction: The aim of the thesis was to find out how much frailty syndrome effects mobility and other factors as self-sufficiency, nutrition of elderly people.
File and methods: The average age of men was 74 years and in women was 76 years. The inclusion criteria for the selection of the sample were: age over 65 years, cognitive disposition and consent to inclusion in the research. We used a set of three standardized questionnaires: Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB); Nottingham Screening Tool (NST); Activity Daily Living (ADL).
Results: A small group of seniors (17%) belonged to the group pre-frailtly according to the SPPB test Only 22% of men and 11% of women had good physical fitness at the age of 75-89 years. Good nutritional status was recorded in 38% of people aged 65-74 years, in 19% of seniors in the range of 75-89 and in 6% of long-term seniors. Complete self-sufficiency (ADL test) was achieved by 15 seniors under the age of 89.
Discussion and Conclusion: The results of the SPPB test used confirm the fact that the incidence of frailty increases with age. SPPB is sensitive enough to detect frailty syndrome. Inadequate food intake can affect the functional condition of the senior. Exercise is suitable for the treatment of frailty itself, especially strengthening with a visible anabolic effect. Short-term isometric exercises that do not burden the cardiovascular system are appropriate.
