Frailty Studies

Frailty studies focus on understanding frailty, a state of increased vulnerability often seen in older adults. This condition can result from a combination of factors like physical weakness, exhaustion, and slow walking speed, making individuals more susceptible to adverse health outcomes. Researchers investigate how frailty impacts overall health, quality of life, and the ability to recover from illnesses or injuries. By identifying risk factors and effective interventions, these studies aim to improve care and support for frail individuals, ultimately enhancing their well-being and independence as they age.
