Abstract

Frailty Syndrome (FS) assessment is pivotal for identifying older individuals who would benefit from comprehensive gerontological evaluations (Turner et al. 2014). Wearable devices have emerged as a promising tool for monitoring FS in this population. Our study aims to investigate whether metrics provided by smartwatches are associated with FS among community-dwelling older adults.
