Sleep–Wake Disturbances and Frailty in Community-Living Older Persons
Journal of the American Geriatrics Society, 10/05/09
Vaz Fragoso CA et al. – In older persons, sleep–wake disturbances that present with daytime drowsiness, but not insomnia, are independently associated with frailty. Because drowsiness is potentially remediable, future studies should determine whether there is a temporal relationship between drowsiness and frailty, with the ultimate goal of informing interventions to reverse or prevent the progression of frailty.
