Frailty models
- able in predicting both natural history and response to therapeutic
interventions
- underpinned by biological principles of causality
Phenotype model Cumulative deficit model
▪ 5 variables: unintentional weight - part of the CSHA study 5-year
loss, self-reported exhaustion, prospective cohort (n=10 263)
low energy expenditure, slow gait mean age 82 years
speed, and weak grip strength - 92 baseline variables of symptoms
(The lowest quintile values were (eg, low mood), signs (eg, tremor),
used to define absence or and abnormal laboratory values,
presence of these variables) disease states, and disabilities
People with Parkinson’s disease, (collectively referred to as deficits),
previous stroke, cognitive were used to define frailty
impairment, or depression were
excluded. - frailty index was a simple
calculation of the presence or
▪ ≥ 3 factors frail (7%); 1-2 factors absence of each variable as a
pre-frail (47%); 0 factors robust = proportion of the total (20/92=0·22)
not frail (46%)
