Detailed geriatric assessment

The demographic characteristics of the patients, comorbid diseases, history and number of falls in the last 6 months will be questioned, and the thyroid stimulating hormone, calciferol, cobalamin, glycosylated hemoglobin, folic acid and glomerular filtration rate levels routinely requested from each patient in the last 3 months will be recorded. During the outpatient clinic application, the patients will undergo neurocognitive assessment, mood assessment, daily living activities assessment, balance and walking assessment, nutritional assessment and frailty assessment. The patients' handgrip strength from their dominant hand will be assessed with a hand dynamometer. The walking speed of the patients will be measured as the number of seconds it takes to walk 4 meters and recorded in seconds. All patients will be questioned about the presence of body pain with the numerical pain scale score and all patients will be evaluated for the presence of fibromyalgia syndrome.
