Résumé
The prevalence of frailty determines the proportion of the population that will experience intercurrent events and dependency. The aim was to assess the prevalence and factors associated with frailty using the modified SEGA grid. Method. This was a cross-sectional descriptive study. The primary endpoint was frailty, assessed using the modified SEGA grid. Results. The prevalence of frail and very frail people was estimated at 33%. In multivariate analysis, gender, lifestyle, and marital status did not appear to be associated with frailty. However, the instrumental activities of daily living (IADL) score was associated with frailty OR = 0.21 (95% CI 0.06 to 0.68; p = 0.009). EVS is also associated with frailty for mild pain OR = 12.12 (95% CI 2.49 to 59.08; p = 0.007). Conclusion. Our results independently show the association between IADL and frailty. A one-unit increase in IADL score is less associated with frailty.
