Resumo: Aim: to characterize and verify the fragility of the elderly in outpatient chemotherapy treatment in a university hospital of southern Brazil, and to identify the association between fragility and the following variables: chemotherapeutic effect, treatment time and selfreported diseases. Method: cross-sectional study conducted with 70 elderly in the chemotherapy outpatient, from August to September 2014 by means of Edmonton Frail Scale and characterization form. Results: fifty percent did not present fragility, 31.4% were apparently vulnerable and 18.6% had some level of fragility. Among the frail elderly, 15.7% had mild fragility, 1.4% moderate and 1.4% severe. The association between frailty and self-reported diseases, time of treatment and chemotherapeutic effects was not statistically significant. Conclusion: it was point to applicability of the scale to identify predisposing factors for the fragility syndrome and to enable preventive actions for the elderly in chemotherapeutic treatment

Método: estudio transversal realizado con 70 ancianos de un ambulatorio de quimioterapia, entre agosto y septiembre de 2014, a través de la Edmonton Frail Scale y forma de caracterización. Resultados: 50% no presentaron fragilidad, 31,4% eran aparentemente vulnerables y 18,6% tenía algún nivel de fragilidad. Entre los ancianos frágiles 15,7% tenían una fragilidad leve, 1,4% moderada y 1,4% severa. La asociación entre fragilidad y enfermedades auto referidas, y tiempo de tratamiento y efectos quimioterápicos no presentó significancia estadística. Conclusión: se observó la aplicabilidad de la escala para identificar factores predisponentes para el síndrome de fragilidad y viabilizar acciones preventivas a los ancianos en tratamiento quimioterápico.Objetivo: caracterizar e verificar a fragilidade de idosos em tratamento quimioterápico ambulatorial em um Hospital Universitário da região Sul do Brasil e, identificar a associação entre a fragilidade e as variáveis: efeito quimioterápico, tempo de tratamento e doenças autorreferidas. Método: estudo transversal desenvolvido com 70 idosos em um ambulatório de quimioterapia, de agosto a setembro de 2014, por meio da Edmonton Frail Scale e do formulário de caracterização. As análises estatísticas foram realizadas no programa Statistical Package for the Social Sciences versão 21. Resultados: houve predomínio de idosos do sexo masculino (61,4%), casados (62,8%), com ensino fundamental incompleto (71,4%), com renda mensal de até dois salários mínimos (82,8%) e a metade não apresentava fragilidade (50%). Conclusão: as variáveis analisadas não apresentaram significância, portanto não representam um fator de risco para a fragilidade de idosos em tratamento quimioterápico.Universidade Federal de Santa Maria2017-09-11info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttp://periodicos.ufsm.br/reufsm/article/view/2458710.5902/2179769224587Revista de Enfermagem da UFSM; v. 7 n. 2 (2017); 291 - 3032179-7692reponame:Revista de Enfermagem da Universidade Federal de Santa Mariainstname:Universidade Federal de Santa Maria (UFSM)instacron:UFSMporhttp://periodicos.ufsm.br/reufsm/article/view/24587/pdfCopyright (c) 2017 Revista de Enfermagem da UFSMinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessZimmermann, Josiane CarolineBeuter, MargridBruinsma, Jamile LaisCasarolli, Ana Cristina GeissJacobi, Caren da SilvaVenturini, Larissa2021-04-20T13:09:52Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/24587Revistahttps://periodicos.ufsm.br/reufsmPUBhttp://cascavel.ufsm.br/revistas/ojs-2.2.2/index.php/reufsm/oaicentraldeperiodicos@ufsm.br||reufsm@gmail.com2179-76922179-7692opendoar:2021-04-20T13:09:52Revista de Enfermagem da Universidade Federal de Santa Maria - Universidade Federal de Santa Maria (UFSM)false
