About this study
With the continuous development of China's economy and the improvement of medical standards, the life expectancy of the Chinese population has significantly increased. Against the backdrop of accelerating aging in China, the incidence of age-related chronic non-communicable diseases (NCDs), such as cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases and chronic respiratory diseases, has risen remarkably. These diseases are characterized by multiple comorbidities, high disability rates, and high mortality rates, severely compromising the quality of life of older adults, exacerbating family burdens, and straining healthcare systems. This constitutes one of the major challenges faced by aging societies. Therefore, early detection and intervention of chronic diseases in older adults are critical measures to address population aging.
Comprehensive geriatric assessment (CGA), a core specialty of geriatric medicine, serves as a fundamental framework for the clinical identification of geriatric syndromes and multidisciplinary management. It is emerging as a key pathway to promote "healthy aging." Guided by this premise, this study aims to explore the application value of CGA in managing chronic diseases among older adults, with the goal of achieving full-cycle management for early detection, diagnosis, and treatment of chronic conditions in China's elderly population.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
comprehensive geriatric assessmentDiagnostic test
The comprehensive geriatric assessment (CGA) is a multi dimensional diagnostic process used to determine the medi cal, psychological, and functional capabilities of a frail elderly person to develop a coordinated and integrated plan for treat ment and long-term follow-up.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Elderly patients with chronic diseases | The study population consisted of patients with chronic diseases in the elderly who underwent comprehensive geriatric assessment and management. Chronic diseases in the elderly included but were not limited to chronic heart failure, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, cognitive dysfunction, and so on. We compared various biochemical indexes, cardiac function indexes, quality of life, and the occurrence of long-term adverse events before and after the comprehensive geriatric assessment and management. Receives: Diagnostic Test: comprehensive geriatric assessment | |
| Healthy elderly population | The control group was composed of elderly subjects without evidence of chronic diseases. Chronic diseases was excluded by performing a complete medical history, a comprehensive physical examination, and an echocardiogram. Receives: Diagnostic Test: comprehensive geriatric assessment |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Major adverse events (MAE)
Major adverse events (MAE) in overall population, defined as composite of all-cause death, Heart Failure hospitalization, recurrent myocardial infarction, stroke, etc.
Measured: These data is collected during follow-up visit at 3/6/12/24/36 months after discharge
