Summary

We are conducting a study in different centers in Spain in elderly people, in order to assess the effectiveness of a physical exercise intervention program in people in a situation of frailty. Frailty in an elderly person is a situation in which, although there are no major differences in their usual abilities, the person presents a certain decrease in their capacities. This slight decrease is usually accompanied by a progressive deterioration.

Physical exercise

1\. Hospital exercise cohort: Participants will be consecutively recruited from the scheduled patient list of the falls unit and the outpatient clinics of Hospital 1. After informed consent acquisition, patients will receive a baseline clinical evaluation. Ultrasound measurements and DXA scan will be conducted, and blood samples will be collected, processed, and stored. Patients will be included in the 16-week multicomponent physical exercise program described below. After the completion of the exercise program, at 16-week follow-up, clinical evaluation, ultrasound, DXA, and blood-sample testing will be repeated.
