Frailty is a multidimensional clinical syndrome associated with increased vulnerability to adverse health outcomes in older adults. Despite strong evidence supporting multicomponent exercise interventions, their implementation in primary care settings remains limited.
This randomized controlled trial aims to evaluate the efficacy of the FRAIL+AP program, which integrates Comprehensive Geriatric Assessment (CGA) with a 12-week multicomponent exercise intervention, including visual-spatial gait retraining using the Tapiz Fisior system.
The study will assess whether this intervention improves frailty status, physical performance, and functional independence, while reducing falls among community-dwelling older adults compared to standard care.
