Research advances in exercise management for frail older adults

As global aging accelerates, there is a dramatic shift in the structure of world health. Frailty marks the entry into aging and becomes an important factor affecting the health of older adults. In order to reduce the harm of infirmity to the physical health of the older adults, international interventions for infirmity have been continuously developed, and exercise management has been widely studied as an effective intervention strategy in geriatric infirmity, but the domestic research on infirmity started late and has been less studied. This paper reviews the definition and clinical manifestations of frailty in the older adults, types of exercise interventions and assessment of exercise effects, and research progress in health management theory, with a view to providing reference for the development of exercise programs for frail older adults.
