Health Promotion Can Postpone Frailty: Results from the RCT Elderly Persons in the Risk Zone.
Författare
Summary, in English
Very old persons (80+) are often described as "frail", implying that they are particularly vulnerable to adverse health outcomes. Elderly Persons in the Risk Zone was designed to determine whether a preventive home visit or multiprofessional senior group meetings could postpone deterioration in frailty if the intervention is carried out when the person is not so frail.
