Abstract:

Objective: To identify sociodemographic and clinical factors associated with the frailty of elderly people with chronic kidney disease on hemodialysis. Method: This is a correlational study, cross-sectional, conducted in a dialysis center in the state of São Paulo. The sample consisted of 60 participants. Participant characterization instrument for extracting sociodemographic and clinical data and the Edmonton Frail Scale, which evaluated the level of frailty was used. To identify the factors associated with frailty was used multivariate logistic regression. Results: The mean age of the 60 patients included was 71.1 (± 6.9) years, predominantly male (70%), 36.7% were classified as fragile. As for the factors associated with frailty among the variables gender, age, self-reported skin color, schooling, monthly per capita income, hemodialysis time, number of associated diseases, falls in the year, hematocrit level, parathyroid hormone and use of calcitriol, it was found that only the monthly per capita income was significantly associated with frailty (OR = 0.44; 95% CI 0.1-0.9; p = 0.04), older people at risk of frailty were with lower per capita income. Conclusion: There was an association between frailty and income, the elderly most at risk of frailty were the lower income.
