INSTRUMENTS

The Frail-VIG index© is an index of frailty based on Integrated Geriatric Evaluation ('Valoració Integral Geriàtrica', or 'VIG'), which has proved as an instrument
to be straightforward (in content terms),
swift (in administration time),
precise (providing a situational diagnosis
through a continuous variable)
and highly predictive
(with high prognostic mortality correlation).
