Resumo: Objective: to evaluate the factors associated with frailty syndrome in elderly women in an outpatient clinic. Methods: cross-sectional study with 252 elderly women. The Mini Mental State Examination and the Edmonton Frail Scale were applied. The association of variables was performed using simple linear regression (Fisher’s F and Student’s t tests), p≤0.05. Results: there was prevalence of married women (44.4%) with low schooling (50.0%) and living with relatives (50.8%). Among them, 28.6% had mild, 13.0% moderate and 3.6% severe frailty. The factors associated with the syndrome were age (p=0.021), level of education (p=0.001), living with relatives (p=0.013), illnesses (p=0.023), falls (p=0.001) and hospitalization in the last 12 months (p=0.001). Conclusion: evidenced that almost half of the sample presented some type of frailty. Thus, it is important to evaluate this population frequently, considering the associated factors that can contribute to frailty.

Métodos: estudo transversal com 252 idosas. Aplicou-se o Mini Exame do Estado Mental e a Escala de Fragilidade de Edmonton. A associação de variáveis foi realizada por meio da regressão linear simples (testes F de Fisher e t de Student), p≤0,05. Resultados: predominaram as casadas (44,4%), com baixa escolaridade (50,0%) e que moravam com familiares (50,8%). Entre elas, 28,6% possuíam fragilidade leve, 13,0% moderada e 3,6% severa. Os fatores associados à síndrome foram idade (p=0,021), nível de escolaridade (p=0,001), residir com familiares (p=0,013), doenças (p=0,023), quedas meses (p=0,001) e hospitalização nos últimos 12 meses (p=0,001). Conclusão: evidenciou-se que quase metade da amostra apresentou algum tipo de fragilidade. Assim, é importante avaliar frequentemente essa população, considerando fatores associados que podem contribuir para a fragilidade.Rev Rene2017-11-17T17:29:30Z2017-11-17T17:29:30Z2017-09info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfGRDEN, C.
