OBJECTIVE
to investigate the prevalence and factors associated with frailty in non-institutionalized older adults living in northern Minas Gerais, Brazil.
METHOD
data were collected in their homes, in 2013, based on a census cluster sampling. Demographic and socioeconomic variables, morbidities, utilization of health care services, and scores on the Edmonton Fragility Scale were analyzed. The adjusted prevalence ratios were obtained using the Poisson regression multiple analysis with robust variance.
RESULTS
the prevalence of frailty was 41.3%. The variables associated with frailty were: female gender, very old age, education of less than four years, not having been hospitalized in the last 12 months, having a caregiver, falling in the prior year, diabetes mellitus, cardiac disease, and osteoarticular disease.
CONCLUSION
the prevalence of frailty was high. Some factors consist of modifiable conditions, which should encourage health actions aimed at this group.
目的
调查居住在巴西米纳斯吉拉斯州北部的非机构化老年人中衰弱的患病率及其相关因素。
方法
2013年基于整群抽样普查在他们家中收集数据。分析了人口统计学和社会经济变量、发病率、医疗服务利用情况以及埃德蒙顿衰弱量表得分。使用具有稳健方差的泊松回归多元分析获得调整后的患病率比。
结果
衰弱的患病率为41.3%。与衰弱相关的变量有：女性、高龄、受教育年限不足四年、过去12个月未住院、有护理人员、前一年跌倒、糖尿病、心脏病和骨关节疾病。
结论
衰弱的患病率很高。一些因素包括可改变的状况，这应促使针对该群体采取健康行动。
