Brief Summary
The number of elderly is increasing throughout of the world. Aging is associated with increasing diseases that may be preventable. Over the last decades, frailty has emerged as one of the major risk factors for loss of autonomy. Frailty can be reversed through appropriate interventions particularly when they are implemented early. Therefore, early detection of frailty is a major objective. The goal of this study is to identify elderly subjects aged 70 years and over at the early stage of frailty by using a self administered questionnaire sent to the participant by mail. The results of the self assessment will be compared to the Fried criteria collected by a clinical examination conducted by a healthcare Professional blinded to the self assessment results.
