Previous issue date: 2017-08-31 / Fragility is a multidimensional syndrome that involves a complex interaction of biological, psychological and social factors that culminates in a state of greater vulnerability, together with the greater risk of adverse clinical outcomes such as delirium, functional decline, impaired mobility, falls, social withdrawal, increased morbidity and mortality and hospitalization. The objective of this research was to investigate the relationship between frailty, self-perception of health and fear of falls of elderly people. This is an observational, descriptive, quantitative and cross-sectional analytical study. Data on fragility measures, subjective health assessment and fall efficacy scale were collected using structured and validated forms. The Statistical Package for Social Sciences - IBM 22.0 software was used to analyze the data. For the inferential analyzes, the Chi-square test was used. The significance level stipulated for the study was p???0.05. The results allow us to infer that the fragility is high in elderly people who are attended at the Catholic University Hospital of Bras??lia, administered by the Heart Institute of the Federal District (ICDF). All were classified as fragile and pre-fragile, none being rated as robust. There is a relation of the fragility of these with the fear of falls and with the age group. The variable sex has no relation with any variable studied. Regarding health perception (self-reported), the long-lived elderly evaluated perceived their health as regular and good, the great majority as good, and did not differ in relation to the age group. Thus we conclude that our sample presents high levels of fragility and that the more fragile, the greater the fear of falling. However, although they have high levels of fragility, they evaluate their health as good. / A fragilidade constitui-se em uma s??ndrome multidimensional que envolve uma intera????o complexa de fatores biol??gicos, psicol??gicos e sociais que culmina em um estado de maior vulnerabilidade, aliado ao maior risco de ocorr??ncia de desfechos cl??nicos adversos como del??rio, decl??nio funcional, mobilidade prejudicada, quedas, afastamento social, aumento da morbimortalidade e hospitaliza????o. O objetivo desta pesquisa foi investigar a rela????o entre a fragilidade, a autopercep????o de sa??de e do medo de quedas de idosos longevos. Trata-se de um estudo do tipo anal??tico observacional, descritivo, quantitativo e de corte transversal. Os dados de medidas de fragilidade, de avalia????o subjetiva da sa??de e da escala de efic??cia de queda, foram coletados por meio de formul??rios estruturados e validados. Para an??lise dos dados foi utilizado o software Statistical Package for Social Sciences - IBM 22.0, para as an??lises inferenciais foram utilizadas o Teste Qui-quadrado. O n??vel de signific??ncia estipulado para o estudo foi de p???0,05. Os resultados permitem inferir que a fragilidade se apresenta alta em idosos longevos atendidos no Hospital da Universidade Cat??lica de Bras??lia, administrado pelo Instituto do Cora????o do Distrito Federal (ICDF). Todos foram classificados como fr??geis e pr?? fr??geis, n??o sendo nenhum avaliado como robustos. Existe uma rela????o da fragilidade destes com o medo de quedas e com a faixa et??ria. A vari??vel sexo n??o tem rela????o com nenhuma vari??vel estudada. Quanto a percep????o da sa??de (auto referida) os idosos longevos avaliados percebem sua sa??de como regular e boa, a grande maioria como boa, n??o diferindo com rela????o ?? faixa et??ria. Assim conclu??mos que nossa amostra apresenta altos n??veis de fragilidade e que quanto mais fr??gil, maior o medo de cair. Por??m, apesar de apresentarem altos n??veis de fragilidade, estes avaliam sua sa??de como boa.
