摘要：

Objectives: To determine whether there are differences in functionality and gait between fallers and nonfallers in frailty groups. Methods: A cross-sectional study involving 125 community-dwelling elderly individuals. Frailty, falls, functional capacity, and gait were assessed. Results: Functional capacity and spatial-temporal variables of gait differed significantly between the groups with different degrees of frailty (P<.05). Significant differences were found in Dynamic Gait Index scores between the groups divided by degree of frailty and falls (P<.05). Discussion: Falls did not lead to injury in the majority of elderly individuals in the study and therefore did not aggravate the adverse consequences of frailty.
