摘要
目的确定唐氏综合征(DS)患者在社区生活中的体弱患病率,并找出可能与此相关的非临床因素:对 REVIVIS 登记研究进行横断面分析,这是一项关于唐氏综合征患者老年病管理的单中心前瞻性研究:方法:通过 38 分法评估虚弱程度:方法:通过包含 38 个项目的虚弱指数 (FI) 进行评估。结果:139 名受试者中(54.5%),年龄、处方药数量和就业状况(失业与在职)等不同变量之间的关系通过多变量线性回归模型进行了评估:在 139 名平均(标清)年龄为 42.9(6.9)岁的受试者(54.5% 为男性)中,FI 的中位数(四分位数间距)为 0.24(0.16-0.30),60 名受试者(43.2%)被归类为体弱者。处方药的数量与较高的 FI 水平相关(P < .001),而与失业者相比,在职者的 FI 水平较低(P < .001)。未发现计时年龄与 FI 之间有任何关联:我们的研究结果表明,按时间计算的年龄不足以涵盖 DS 患者的复杂性,这凸显了对这一人群的 FI 进行标准化评估的重要性。对于具有高脆弱性(或虚弱)特征的 DS 患者来说,获得老年护理可能是一个重要的机会。
Frailty in Persons with Down Syndrome: Results from the REVIVIS Study
Objectives
To determine frailty prevalence and identify possible nonclinical factors associated with this condition in community-dwelling individuals with Down syndrome (DS).
Design
Cross-sectional analysis of the registry study REVIVIS, a single-center, prospective study on the geriatric management of persons with DS.
Setting and Participants
Individuals with DS (n = 139) referred to a geriatric clinic.
Methods
Frailty was assessed through a 38-item Frailty Index (FI). A multivariable linear regression model was performed to assess the relationship between frailty and different variables of interest: age, number of prescribed drugs, and employment status (unemployed vs employed).
Results
Among 139 subjects (54.5% male), mean (SD) aged 42.9 (6.9) years, the median (interquartile range) FI was 0.24 (0.16-0.30) with 60 participants (43.2%) classified as frail. The number of prescribed medications was associated with higher FI levels (P < .001), whereas being employed was associated with lower FI levels (P < .001) compared with being unemployed. No association was found between chronological age and FI.
Conclusions and Implications
Our findings suggest that chronological age is insufficient to encompass the complexity of a subject with DS, underscoring the importance of a standardized evaluation of the FI among this population. Access to geriatric care might become an important opportunity for people with DS, a population characterized by high vulnerability (or frailty).
