Resumen
MESA VALIENTE, Rita María; HURTADO GASCON, Laura Caridad; TURRO CARO, Eloy y DEL RIO CABALLERO, Germán. Theoretical referents for the professional training on the fragility syndrome in primary health care. MEDISAN [online]. 2024, vol.28, n.1 Epub 29-Feb-2024. ISSN 1029-3019.
The aging physiologic process leads to risk situations and quick deterioration of health; however, some inadequacies in the preparation of the family doctor for the identification and treatment of the fragile elderly are detected. For such a reason, in this work the theoretical referents for professional training on the fragility syndrome in primary health care are described. Diagnostic criteria and clinical manifestations of this syndrome are analyzed, as well as the requirements for the integration of the necessary multidimensional factors that guarantee quality of patient care from the integral and interdisciplinary points of view.
