Com o aumento global da expectativa de vida, observa-se o crescimento de um importante fenomeno associado a populacao geriatrica: a fragilidade; entendida como uma sindrome multidimensional envolvendo interacao entre fatores biologicos, psicologicos e sociais, culminando num estado maior de vulnerabilidade. Conhecer o perfil destes idosos frageis e proceder a sua avaliacao de qualidade de vida pode se constituir em uma importante ferramenta para construcao de politicas de Saúde para esta parcela da populacao. OBJETIVOS. Avaliar a qualidade de vida dos idosos frageis atendidos pelo CRI - Centro de Referencia a Saúde do Idoso - de Campinas, São Paulo. METODO. Aplicacao em forma de entrevista dos questionarios SF-36 (Medical Outcomes Study 36 u Item short form health survey) e WHOQOL bref/old (World Health Organization Quality of Life), alem de um questionario socio demografico contendo os itens sexo, idade, escolaridade, renda em salarios minimos e situacao conjugal, em todos idosos frageis que iniciem seu acompanhamento no CRI.

O escore total medio do WHOQOL-old foi 58 (desvio padrao = 11; IC95% 56 - 60), o do WHOQOL bref foi 56,6 (desvio padrao = 11,2; Min/Max 3,5/87,7) e no SF-36 o Componente Fisico Sumarizado foi de 32,8 (erro 2,65 e IC95% 27,5 - 38) e o Componente Psiquico Sumarizado foi de 58,5 (erro 2,87 e IC95% 52,8 - 64,2).

ABSTRACT BACKGROUND. With the overall increase in life expectancy, there is the growth of an important phenomenon associated with the geriatric population: the fragility; understood as a multidimensional syndrome involving interaction between biological, psychological and social, culminating in a heightened state of vulnerability. Knowing the profile of frail elderly and proceed with the evaluation of quality of life can be an important tool for the construction of health policies for this population. OBJECTIVES. Assess the quality of life of frail elderly served by CRI Reference Center for Elderly Health Campinas, São Paulo. METHODS. Application as an interview of the SF36 (Medical Outcomes Study 36 Item Short form health survey) and WHOQOL BREF / old (World Health Organization Quality of Life), and a demographic questionnaire containing items sex, age, education, income and marital status minimum wages for all elderly frail to begin their followup in CRI. RESULTS. Of 122 frail elderly who answered the questionnaire, 25.4% (31) were male and 74.6% (91) females. The average age was 73 years with a standard deviation of 7.5. Approximately fiftytwo percent (63) of the respondents had up to 03 years of schooling, 87.7% (107) have an income of one to four minimum wages and 46.72% (57) are married. The mean total score of the HOQOLold was 58 (SD = 11, 95% CI 5660), the WHOQOL BREF was 56.6 (SD = 11.2, Min / Max 3.5 / 87.7) and the SF36 Summarized Physical Component was 32.8 (95% CI 2.65 to error from 27.5 to 38) and Summarized Psychic Component was 58.5 (error 2.87 and 95% CI 52.8 to 64.2). CONCLUSION: The use of questionnaires to assess quality of life in the frail elderly population is crucial to measure different approaches and services offered to that population. Although there are no specific questionnaires for the frail elderly, the questionnaires tested have shown to be valid, and the development of a specific tool for this population is strongly recommended by the authors studied.
