FOCUS Guidelines - Evidence- and consensus-based guidelines on interventions aimed at preventing, delaying or reversing frailty

Category: Best practices

The guidelines were framed into four questions "one general and three on specific groups of interventions" all including frailty as the primary outcome of interest. Quantitative and qualitative studies and reviews conducted in the context of the FOCUS project represented the evidence base. The study followed the GRADE Evidence-to-Decision frameworks based on assessment of whether the problem is a priority, the magnitude of the desirable and undesirable effects, the certainty of the evidence, stakeholders' values, the balance between desirable and undesirable effects, the resource use, and other factors like acceptability and feasibility. Experts in the FOCUS consortium acted as panellists in the consensus process.

frAAgiLe: Technological Platform for monitoring and monimizaing frailty

Category: Projects

FrAAgiLe is a platform intends to analyze the status of the elderly person, both physically and mentally, in terms of fragility, and then assign individualized physical and mental exercises to avoid the risk of possible falls, using an accessible and affordable solution that combines videos for exercises and serious games to both train and detect physical or cognitive fragility. Deep Learning techniques will be applied in order to help the frAAgiLe system learn about the fragility history of each individual end-user and customize the training plan according to his/her evolution. The system will also focus on being as cheap and less intrusive as possible, using only tablets and wearables. frAAgiLe project will be developed through a user-centered approach, with an active involvement of end-users in different phases of the project, along its entire duration; end-users coming from 3 different European countries, and thus bringing a heterogeneous background from cultural and economic perspectives, will contribute to the co-creation of the platform.
