Previous issue date: 2013-10-17 / Fragility Syndrome Aging is a clinical syndrome that causes damage in the physical, psychological and social, leading to functional decline being determined by social risk factors, biological, environmental and psychological. Objective: To detect the presence of the syndrome of frailty in elderly in patients and the definition of fragility in the perception of professional nursing in the emergency department. Methodology: A quantitative cross-sectional and elderly aged over 60 years and nurses of the Emergency Department of the S?o Lucas Hospital. Scale was applied to Edmonton to fragility and specific questionnaire for the elderly and Teixeira Scale for nurses. The data were analyzed using the Student t test, chi-square test or the Fisher exact Poisson regression model. The significance level was 5%. The study was approved by the Research Ethics Comeettee of PUCRS under number 139242. Results: Both groups showed a mean age of 72.81?8.29 years, ranging from 60 to 92 years, 55.2% male, 41.1% were married, 81% live with family, 72.4 % retirees or pensioners, 87.7% of patients with previous disease and with an average of 3.81 medications per day. The majority of elderly patients (66.26%) is situated in the range classed as moderate and severe weakness, 25 (15.34%) with mild weakness, 29 (17.79%) with moderate brittleness and 79 (48,47% ) with severe weakness. The factors associated with frailty were age (PR = 1.21, 95% CI: 1.03 to 1.42), marital status (PR = 1.19, 95% CI :1,02-1, 37), use of medications (PR = 1.16, 95% CI 1.02 to 1.31), infectious diseases (PR = 1.17, 95% CI 1.03 to 1.32), neoplasms (PR = 1.22, 95 %: 1.06 to 1.42) and hospital stay of one or two times in the last year (PR = 1.35, 95% CI 1.15 to 1.58) (PR = 1.30, 95% CI: 1, 10 to 1.53). Regarding the sample of 12 nurses, there was a group of average age 29?3.3 years, ranging between 23 and 34 years, with 83.3% female, 58.3% single, 66.7% natural from Porto Alegre city and 58.3% without post graduation completed. Nurses to be fragile, should be the criterion vulnerability to environmental stress, disease and falls (100%), have comorbidities (91.7%), at an advanced age (83.4%) and perform fewer social activities (75%). Regarding the characteristics of fragility must be unintentional weight loss (100%), self-reported fatigue (75%), decreased grip strength (66.7%), reduction of physical activity (91.7%), cognitive impairment (83.3%), depression (100%) and reduction of social relations (100%). Consequences of weakness involving the decline of functional capacity (100%), hospitalization (58.3%), disability (58.3%) and death (58.3%). Conclusion: The fragility is important public health problem and demand more studies focusing on its definition targeting assistance on the part of health professionals with quality and effectiveness. / A S?ndrome da Fragilidade do Idoso ? uma s?ndrome cl?nica que gera preju?zos nos dom?nios f?sico, psicol?gico e social, levando ao decl?nio funcional sendo determinada por fatores de risco sociais, biol?gicos, ambientais e psicol?gicos. Objetivo: Detectar a presen?a da s?ndrome de fragilidade nos idosos internados e a defini??o de fragilidade na percep??o do profissional de enfermagem no Pronto Atendimento. Metodologia: Estudo quantitativo e transversal com idosos com idade igual ou superior a 60 anos e profissionais enfermeiros do Pronto Atendimento do Hospital S?o Lucas da PUCRS. Foi aplicada a Escala de Edmonton para fragilidade e question?rio espec?fico para os idosos e a Escala de Teixeira para os enfermeiros. Os dados foram analisados atrav?s do teste t de Student, teste qui-quadrado de Pearson ou exato de Fisher pelo modelo de Regress?o de Poisson. O n?vel de signific?ncia adotado foi de 5%. O estudo foi aprovado pelo Comit? de ?tica em Pesquisa da PUCRS sob o n?mero 139242. Resultados: Os idosos mostraram uma m?dia de idade de 72,81?8,29 anos, variando de 60 a 92 anos, 55,2% do sexo masculino, 41,1% casados, 81% residem com a fam?lia, 72,4% aposentados ou pensionistas, 87,7% portadores de doen?a pr?via e com uma m?dia de 3,81 medicamentos por dia. A maior parte dos idosos (66,26%) est? situada na faixa classificada como fragilidade moderada e severa, 25 (15,34%) com fragilidade leve, 29 (17,79%) com fragilidade moderada e 79 (48,47%) com fragilidade severa. Os fatores associados ? fragilidade foram idade (RP=1,21; IC 95%:1,03 1,42), estado civil (RP= 1,19; IC95%:1,02-1,37), uso de medica??es (RP=1,16; IC95%:1,02 1,31), doen?as infecciosas (RP= 1,17; IC95%:1,03 1,32), neoplasias (RP= 1,22; IC95%: 1,06 1,42) e interna??o de uma ou duas vezes no ?ltimo ano (RP=1,35; IC95%: 1,15 1,58) (RP= 1,30; IC95%: 1,10 1,53). Em rela??o ? amostra dos 12 enfermeiros, verificou-se uma idade m?dia et?ria de 29?3,3 anos, variando entre 23 e 34 anos, com 83,3% do sexo feminino, 58,3% solteiros, 66,7% naturais da cidade de Porto Alegre e 58,3% sem p?s gradua??o conclu?da. Para os enfermeiros para ser fr?gil, deve haver o crit?rio vulnerabilidade aos estresses ambientais, patologias e quedas (100%), apresentar comorbidades (91,7%), ter idade avan?ada (83,4%) e realizar poucas atividades sociais (75%). Quanto ?s caracter?sticas de fragilidade deve haver perda de peso n?o intencional (100%), auto-relato de fadiga (75%), diminui??o da for?a de preens?o palmar (66,7%), redu??o das atividades f?sicas (91,7%), d?ficit cognitivo (83,3%), depress?o (100%) e diminui??o das rela??es sociais (100%). As consequ?ncias da fragilidade envolvem o decl?nio da capacidade funcional (100%), hospitaliza??o (58,3%), incapacidade (58,3%) e o ?bito (58,3%). Conclus?o: A fragilidade ? importante problema de sa?de p?blica e demanda maiores estudos com foco na sua defini??o visando uma assist?ncia por parte dos profissionais de sa?de com qualidade e efetividade.
