Frailty Syndrome

📖What is Frailty Syndrome?

Frailty Syndrome is a clinical condition common in older adults, characterized by decreased physiological reserve and reduced resistance to stressors, resulting from cumulative decline across multiple body systems. It leaves affected individuals more vulnerable to adverse health outcomes such as falls, hospitalization, disability, and even minor illnesses becoming serious medical events. Frailty is distinct from normal aging and represents a state where the body has diminished capacity to recover from physical or medical stress. It often develops gradually and can be identified through specific clinical markers before severe complications occur.
