Using a frailty checklist to help older people choose care
Treatments studied
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
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.

This study tests a special nutrition program to help older adults who are frail become stronger and healthier. If you are between 65 and 85 and have signs of frailty, this program might help you feel better and be more active.
This study compares different ways to check frailty (a measure of how well your body handles stress) in women with breast cancer who are 50 or older. The goal is to find which screening tool best predicts health outcomes during treatment.
This study looks at “frailty,” or how well the body may handle stress, around the time of surgery in people age 65 and older. It may help doctors better understand who is at higher risk and how to plan care around surgery.
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 whether gut bacteria (intestinal flora) are linked to frailty in people age 65 and older. It will also test an intervention to see if changing gut bacteria can help reduce frailty.
This study tests if a program designed for older, frail hospital patients can prevent loss of ability to do daily tasks. It focuses on physical activity, mental engagement, and nutrition to help you stay independent.
