In community-dwelling older people, coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has been reported to be associated with the development of frailty and depressive symptoms. We aimed to investigate whether the spread of COVID-19 is associated with the development of frailty in patients with heart failure (HF). The presence of the multi-domain of frailty in 257 patients with HF was assessed at hospital discharge. The spread of COVID-19 was significantly associated with the development of social frailty and depressive symptoms. Evaluation of these symptoms during hospitalization would support disease management and understanding of their social and psychological conditions.
在社区居住的老年人中,据报道,2019 年冠状病毒病(COVID-19)与衰弱和抑郁症状的发展有关。我们旨在研究 COVID-19 的传播是否与心力衰竭(HF)患者的衰弱发展有关。在出院时评估了 257 例 HF 患者的多领域衰弱情况。COVID-19 的传播与社会衰弱和抑郁症状的发展显着相关。在住院期间评估这些症状将有助于疾病管理,并了解其社会和心理状况。
