Study to find frailty risk factors in adults over 50
This study looks at older adults (50+) to see which signs of “frailty” predict worse health outcomes over time. Your information from an existing survey or a clinic visit may be used to help researchers plan better care for people as they age.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be age 50 or older.
- You are either already part of the SUCCEED survey (starting in 2010 or later) or you are visiting the “successful ageing clinic” for the first time.
- You agree to let researchers use your data for research (you do not refuse).
- You should be able to understand and complete the study questionnaires.
- You should not have a condition that would make it hard for you to safely take part (like certain cognitive/mental/psychiatric issues, as judged by the study team).

This study looks at what makes older adults become frail and checks whether a prevention-focused geriatric assessment and regular follow-up can help. If you’re at risk for frailty, you may be asked to join assessments and answer follow-up calls for three years.
This study tests a new computer system in doctor's offices designed to help identify which older patients are becoming frail (weak or vulnerable). If you're 65 or older and see a participating doctor, this trial might help you get early support if needed.
This study follows older adults to understand frailty and dependence over time. It may help improve care for people your age.
This study looks at frailty (how easily people can manage daily life), kidney function, and overall primary care needs in older adults living in rural areas. You may be asked to complete repeated health checks and care questionnaires to see what patterns predict health and support.
This study looks at how “frailty” (lower strength and resilience) and “pre-frailty” change over time in older adults who live at home. It may help researchers understand what factors affect aging and strength, so future care can start earlier.
This study looks at how a personalized “frailty” checklist can help older adults (65+) understand their health and make better choices. You may be asked to complete questionnaires and a frailty-type assessment to see if the approach works for you.
