Abstract

This paper outlines some of the key methods used to evaluate frailty and provide important metrics for the implementation of an e-Frailty framework. Frailty is an emergent property of the aging process, as measured using quantification of accumulation of deficits (Frailty Index) or as observed functional impairment (Phenotype Model)
