Abstract

[Purpose] This study investigated the relationship between subjective health impression and frailty among community-dwelling elderly persons. [Participants and Methods] In all, 215 (female 161) elderly persons participated in a survey, and the mean age was 73.6 +- 6.8 years. The measurement items were age, sex, BMI, muscle strength, SMI, gait speed, frailty, depression, cognitive function, subjective health impression, and number of medications. [Results] There were significant differences in subjective health impression, frailty, depression, and number of medications between a subjective healthy group and subjective unhealthy group. In addition, it was suggested that frailty, depression, and number of medications were independent related factors of subjective health impression. [Conclusion] Subjective unhealthy impression was associated with frailty, depression, and large number of medications.
