A study for older veterans with frailty in primary care
This study aims to help identify and manage functional impairment and frailty in older veterans. It will test ways to improve how primary care providers screen and support veterans who may have difficulty with daily activities or overall health declines.

Who can take part
- You are a military veteran.
- You are 60 years old or older.
- You have been seen at a Veterans Health Administration (VA) primary care clinic after the study begins.

This trial tests a high-intensity interval training (HIIT) exercise program to help older veterans feel stronger and more resilient and to reduce frailty. It may help people who are not yet very frail (or are just starting to become frail) but can safely exercise.
This study tests a program to help identify and manage health issues in older adults who are moderately frail. If you are 60 or older and a patient at a participating polyclinic, the program may help you stay independent and healthy.
This study looks at how to better understand and predict frailty and memory changes in older adults with at least one chronic condition. It aims to use a simple screening to personalize care and help you stay independent longer.
This study aims to improve fall prevention for older veterans. It tests a program that combines telehealth check-ins with a caregiver-supported physical assessment to reduce fall risk. Participation may help you feel safer and more stable.
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 trial aims to improve how frailty is detected in older adults. It tests a new approach to identify frailty early, which could help prevent health problems.
