Resumo: Objective: to identify the prevalence and predictors of frailty in older people in Primary Health Care. Method: this is a descriptive and correlational study, carried out in a convenience sample of 136 older people in the community. Data were collected through a sociodemographic and clinical questionnaire and frailty phenotype. Student’s t test or U-Mann-Whitney test, chi-square and binary logistic regression were used for data analysis. Results: the prevalence of frailty was 26.5% (n=36). Frail individuals had older age (p=0.011), worse self-rated health (p=0.001) and lower physical capacity (p<0.001). In the multivariable regression, it was observed that frail individuals had older age (Odds Ratio=1.111; 95% confidence interval=1.026-1.203) and worse physical capacity (Odds Ratio=0.673; 95% confidence interval=0.508-0.893). Conclusions: the prevalence of frailty in older people in Primary Health Care was considerable. Advanced age and worse physical capacity were the most relevant predictors of frailty in the elderly

Método: estudo descritivo e correlacional, realizado em amostra de conveniência com 136 idosos na comunidade. Os dados foram coletados através de um questionário sociodemográfico, clínico e pelo fenótipo de fragilidade. Utilizaram-se o teste t de Student ou U-Mann-Whitney, o Qui-Quadrado e a regressão logística binária na análise dos dados. Resultados: a prevalência da fragilidade foi de 26,5% (n=36). Os idosos frágeis apresentaram idade mais avançada (p=0,011), pior autoavaliação de saúde (p=0,001) e menor capacidade física (p<0,001). Na regressão multivariável, observou-se que os idosos frágeis apresentavam idade mais avançada (Odds Ratio=1,111; Intervalo de Confiança 95%=1,026-1,203) e pior capacidade física (Odds Ratio=0,673; Intervalo de Confiança 95%=0,508-0,893). Conclusões: a prevalência da fragilidade nos idosos na Atenção Primária à Saúde foi considerável. A idade avançada e a pior capacidade física foram os preditores mais relevantes da fragilidade nos idosos.Objetivo: identificar la prevalencia y predictores de fragilidad en ancianos en Atención Primaria de Salud. Método: estudio descriptivo y correlacional, realizado en una muestra de conveniencia con 136 ancianos de la comunidad. Los datos fueron recolectados a través de un cuestionario sociodemográfico, clínico y de fenotipo de fragilidad. Para el análisis de los datos se utilizaron la prueba t de Student o la prueba U-Mann-Whitney, chi-cuadrado y regresión logística binaria. Resultados: la prevalencia de fragilidad fue del 26,5% (n=36). Los ancianos frágiles eran mayores (p=0,011), peor autoevaluación de la salud (p=0,001) y menos capaces físicamente (p <0,001). En la regresión multivariante, se observó que los ancianos frágiles eran mayores (Odds Ratio=1,111; Intervalo de confianza del 95%=1,026- 1,203) y peor capacidad física (Odds Ratio=0,673; Intervalo de confianza del 95%=0,508- 0,893).
