Development of Frailty Prevention Clinic in Geriatric Comprehensive Clinic RSCM:
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
There is an increasing number of elderly population, not only in Indonesia, but also in the world. With increasing of age, there is also an increasing number of elderly with sarcopenia and frailty. Both of the diseases can lead to dependency, decrease quality of life, and morbidity. Besides nutrition, physical activity, especially resistance training is proven to be beneficial in improving sarcopenia and frailty condition.
Currently in Cipto Mangunkusumo National Hospital (RSCM), there is no comprehensive frailty prevention clinic in the geriatric inpatient clinics. This research can be the base of frailty and sarcopenia treatment in RSCM.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Frailty Status [12 weeks]
The FRAIL scale includes 5 components: Fatigue, Resistance, Ambulation, Illness, and Loss of weight (10). Frail scale scores range from 0-5 (i.e., 1 point for each component; 0=best to 5=worst) and represent frail (3-5), pre-frail (1-2), and robust (0) health status
- Sarcopenia Status [12 weeks]
Measured using: BIA: <7.0 kg/m2 in men and <5.7 kg/m2 in women Five times sit to stand: ≥12 seconds Hand-grip strength: <28 kg for men and <18 kg for women
- Walking Speed [12 weeks]
<1.0 m/s
- Patient's Quality of Life [12 weeks]
Measured by EQ-5D: ranging from 0 ('worst imaginable health') to 100 ('best imaginable health')
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Prevalence of Frailty [12 weeks]
The FRAIL scale includes 5 components: Fatigue, Resistance, Ambulation, Illness, and Loss of weight (10). Frail scale scores range from 0-5 (i.e., 1 point for each component; 0=best to 5=worst) and represent frail (3-5), pre-frail (1-2), and robust (0) health status
- Prevalence of Sarcopenia [12 weeks]
Measured using: BIA: <7.0 kg/m2 in men and <5.7 kg/m2 in women Five times sit to stand: ≥12 seconds Hand-grip strength: <28 kg for men and <18 kg for women
