Abstract
Objectives: To analyze the associated cognitive frailty with falls and clinical admissions in older patients. Methods: Case-control, analytical, individual-based, observational study based on longitudinal retrospective design. The sample comprised patients older than 65 years old, treated at the outpatient clinic of a geriatric service, who were followed up in the previous period of six months. Cognitive frailty (CF) was used as a dependent variable in the present study. Cognitive impairment was diagnosed based on Clinical Dementia Rating. Frailty was categorized based on the clinical frailty scale. The Chi-square test and Poisson regression model were used to evaluate the association between CF and outcomes.
