内容記述 |
Purpose: The proportion of elderly people in Japan is rapidly increasing and there is a need to extend healthy life expectancy in order to maintain quality of life and to protect the social security system. Recent research has focused on frailty, which plays a part in the need for care and in healthy life expectancy in elderly people. In this study, we aim to elucidate the factors that are strongly associated with physical frailty. Subjects/Methods: Health checks were conducted on 205 elderly volunteers recruited by newsletter in Kaizuka City, Japan. We collected data on basic attributes, physical measurements, physical function assessment and information on exercise habits. J-CHS (Japanese version of the cardiovascular health study) criteria were used to assess physical frailty. Volunteers with none of the five J-CHS criteria were classified as ‘robust’, those with one or two items were classified as ‘physically prefrail’ and those with three or more items were classified as ‘physically frail’. Statistical analyses were then conducted to examine the factors associated with physical frailty. Results: Robust subjects comprised 42.9% of the cohort, 54.1% were physically prefrail and 2.9% were physically frail. The physically prefrail group had significantly lower height and lower limb skeletal muscle mass and a higher proportion of falls in the past year than those in the robust group. The odds ratio for limb skeletal muscle mass was 0.62 and the odds ratio for history of falls in the past year was 2.69. Conclusion: The study identified height, limb skeletal muscle mass, subjective sense of health and reduced frequency of going out as factors contributing to frailty. In addition, significant independent factors associated with increase in the risk of physical pre-frailty were limb skeletal muscle mass and falls in the past year. |
