New digital tool aims to catch frailty early in seniors
NCT ID NCT07570628
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether a digital tool called Fragiclic can help doctors and nurses screen for frailty in patients aged 65 and older during regular check-ups. Frailty increases the risk of falls, hospital stays, and death. The study will track how many patients get screened and whether those screened have fewer unplanned hospitalizations or deaths over 12 months. No extra tasks are required from participants—the tool is used during normal visits.
