Researchers are studying whether ultrasound imaging and machine learning (artificial intelligence) can help doctors better detect and understand frailty in older adults. The study will measure your physical function, muscle health, nutrition, and emotional well-being, along with ultrasound images, to see how all these factors connect and improve care.
Frailty affects many older adults and can be hard to diagnose accurately. This trial aims to use new technology to give doctors better tools for identifying frailty early and creating treatment plans tailored to each person's needs.
You will visit the research center to complete physical function tests, provide measurements like height and weight, have an ultrasound scan to examine your muscles, and answer questions about your mood and quality of life. Blood samples may be taken to check for inflammation and nutrition levels. Researchers will follow your progress over time using all this information to create better profiles for treating frailty.
