Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

In Reunion Island, people encounter environmental and social conditions leading to premature ageing and subsequent frailty.

The study evaluates tools, supported by the latest scientific advances in "machine learning" to detect, identify and measure frailty in order to give health professionals the means to act early through preventive actions.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The 5P research program is a 6-years program that started in 2016.

Its objective is to set up tools, supported by the latest scientific advances in "machine learning" to detect, identify and measure frailty in order to give health professionals the means to act early through preventive actions.

The diversity and transversal nature of the research disciplines in this program make it original. This allows it, through common protocols, to explore the concept of frailty and the care pathway of the elderly through different prisms of complementary observations.

This program is deployed in three stages: proof of principle, proof of concept (called 5P-PILOT) and "the Scaling up" (called 5P-ECHELLE). It combines an evaluation of the acceptability of technological detection tools, a measurement of the impact of prevention workshops on the loss of autonomy among independent frail elderly people and an evaluation of tools to help detect frailty.

The ageing of the population poses a real societal challenge. The loss of autonomy, which is the result of multiple individual or environmental factors for the ageing person, has a costly impact in terms of recourse to care and on the people around them. It is therefore urgent to act on the levers of frailty by acting as early as possible to prevent its irreversibility.

The "5P ECHELLE" project aims to develop a semi-automatic and non-medical method for detecting weak signals of frailty in older people, by combining standardized clinical indicators for assessing their state of robustness with large-scale intelligent detection devices that allow for longitudinal monitoring, while integrating the necessary participatory dimension of the subject.

Instrumental measurement of balance and gait

The balance measurement was performed on a force platform. The walk test was carried out using sensors to analyze and retrieve data from the participant's walk (gait speed, step length, duration of the double support phase).
