Toward a Comprehensive Model of Frailty: An Emerging Concept From the Hong Kong Centenarian Study

摘要

Objectives: A better understanding of the essential components of frailty is important for future developments of management strategies. We aimed to assess the incremental validity of a Comprehensive Model of Frailty (CMF) over Frailty Index (FI) in predicting self-rated health and functional dependency amongst near-centenarians and centenarians.
