A Digitally-Enabled System for Precision Assessment and Intervention of Disability Risk in Older Adults

NCT07508813 | Recruiting

• 1 other identifier: 2023-1268
• Study Type: interventional
• Target: 238
• Locations: 1 country
• Sites: 1

Brief Summary

1. 1.Identify the primary risk factors for disability in older adults through multi-dimensional risk factor screening.
2. 2.Develop a risk stratification model for disability in older adults by integrating outcome indicators and temporal characteristics, and construct an intelligent early warning model to enable automated assessment and monitoring of disability risk.
3. 3.Establish key digital technologies for early warning and prevention of disability risk in older adults, and develop a whole-process digital intervention platform incorporating a decision support system for disability prevention management.
4. 4.Create a digitally empowered hospital-community-household collaborative system for precise assessment and intervention of disability risk in older adults, achieving data-driven whole-process active disability management. The system will be demonstrated and evaluated in communities with diverse characteristics across urban, county, and rural settings.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• SPPB(SHORT PHYSICAL PERFORMANCE BATTERY PROTOCOL)

  the range of score is 0-12, and the higher scores mean a better outcome.

  At baseline, 3 months after intervention, and 6 months after intervention

Secondary Outcomes (3)

• Incidence of disability

  6 months after intervention

• Disability Risk Score

  At baseline, 3 months after intervention, and 6 months after intervention

• Intervention adherence

  3 months after intervention, and 6 months after intervention
