Resumo

Objectives: To know the prevalence of frailty among subjects aged 70 or over who attend the primary care nursing consultation, as well as to know the variables associated with the presence of frailty. Methodology: Cross-sectional observational study in which, after convenience sampling, the Short Physical Performance Battery was used to screen 114 patients for frailty. Multivariate logistic regression was used to determine the variables associated with frailty. Results: 35.4% of the subjects studied were classified as frail after performing the physical function tests. The variables associated with frailty in the multivariate analysis were age, residence environment, risk of falls, taking oral anticoagulants, and slow insulin treatment. Conclusions: This study has evidenced the high existing prevalence of frailty, highlighting the importance of this type of screening and the relevance of primary care nursing contributing to its detection and management.
