노인 운동중심의 신체적 frailty 측정 도구 개발

Abstract

Health-related aging affects physical, psychological, and social life. In old age, when aging progresses considerably, aging-related variables are involved in the progression of frailty in the human body. Therefore, developing an elderly exercise-centered tool to measure the appropriate frailty to prevent frailty and prevent disorders caused by aging are required. This study aimed to develop a physical 'frailty measurement scale' applying based on the kinematic exercisecentered frailty criterion to discriminate physical frailty. The subject of this study is a group of experts who have verified the measurement scale. As a purposive sampling for the application of the Delphi survey, 11 experts were composed. In the first step of the research process, the primary screen and preliminary questions were completed using physical loss, walking speed delay, Fried's frailty determination method, daily life performance ability, functional daily life performance ability, elderly physical fitness test, and TUG. In the second step, opinions were first collected to confirm the degree of convergence, agreement, and stability with the consensus of experts, and content validity was secondarily verified. The reliability was chronbach α=.954, and in a total of 17 questions, convergence was .5 or less, agreement was .75 or more, and stability was .5 or less. Content validity was satisfied except for question 2 (unintended loss of 5kg of two-year-old weight within 6 months). Finally, the measurement tool was completed by determining that question 2 was suitable by reflecting the degree of convergence, agreement, stability and content validity.
