First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This pilot study tested whether wearable devices could remotely monitor pre-frail elderly people living in a small village to prevent frailty from getting worse. The goal was to develop a model for local care that supports healthy aging. The study was terminated early, but it involved 30 participants aged 65 and older who were pre-frail and lived in Salcito, Italy.
