Archives of Gerontology and Geriatrics, 09/29/09
Pereira SRM et al. – Of the patients, 46.3% did not achieve their prior FS. Older age, being underweight, total length of stay and the use of psychotics/sedatives and anxiolitics were associated in multivariate analyses with decline in FS. Working before the fracture was protective of decline in FS. We conclude that HF severely compromised the FS of older persons in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
