| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The prevalence of physical frailty among elderly patients attending outpatient clinics was higher than that among community-dwelling elderly people, especially among patients with coronary artery disease and heart failure. Compared with the non-frail group, the frail group was more likely to be older, have a lower BMI, have lower cognitive function, osteoporosis, and a history of stroke/myocardial infarction/heart failure/malignancy/diabetes. Multivariate analysis showed that heart failure and myocardial infarction were associated with an increased risk of frailty. On the other hand, the progression of frailty due to heart failure or a history of myocardial infarction tended to be suppressed if the level of activity in daily life was high.
