Age-related Conditions in the Context of Multimorbidity and Frailty: Relative Weight of Frailty in Determining the Course and Outcomes of Different Chronic Diseases and Viceversa
Status: Recruiting
Location: See location...
Intervention Type: Diagnostic test
Study Type: Observational
SUMMARY
Observational study. Participants of the FRASNET study (9th March 2017, Protocol No. 24/INT/2017) who were evaluated in 2016 and 2017 will be contacted to be re-evaluated with multidimensional visits as part of the present study in order to assess trajectories and biomarkers of frailty and sarcopenia. Moreover, are going to evaluate with the same multidimensional visits patients with mild cognitive impairment and dementia followed up at the Neurologic Unit of the San Raffaele Hospital.
