Kernaussage
Cognitive frailty, a syndrome of physical frailty and cognitive impairment excluding dementia, is influenced by demographic, lifestyle, nutritional, mental health, and social factors, and can be potentially managed through interventions like dietary changes, exercise, cognitive training, and neuromodulation.
Abstract
With the extension of average life expectancy and the intensification of the global aging trend, cognitive frailty in the older adults has become a new concept and a research hotspot in the field of geriatrics. Cognitive frailty is somewhat reversible in the older adults, and through early screening and intervention, it is possible to effectively restore or delay the decline of cognitive function, thereby preventing progression to dementia, which has become an important strategy for achieving healthy aging. This article will provide a comprehensive review of the concept of cognitive frailty, its epidemiological status, assessment tools, influencing factors, and intervention strategies, aiming to deepen medical workers' understanding of cognitive frailty in the older adults and promote the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of cognitive frailty.
