Objective To explore the correlation between frailty and nursing dependence in elderly hospitalized patients. Methods A total of 78 elderly patients were selected for comparative experiment in this study, all of whom were hospitalized in the hospital from January 2021 to December 2023. All of them were assessed to be frailty. Basic data of them were collected, and the correlation between frailty and nursing dependence was analyzed in depth based on their clinical manifestations. Results The experimental data showed that 78 hospitalized elderly patients with asthenia had different degrees of nursing dependence, with 45 cases of mild, 24 cases of moderate and 9 cases of severe dependence, accounting for 57.69%, 30.77% and 11.54%, respectively. There was a positive correlation between frailty and nursing dependence (P < 0.05). After analyzing the various factors, it can be seen that age, marital status, physical exercise, eating pattern, dysphagia, defecation disorder, limb movement, chronic wound, fall history, stress injury and other characteristics are directly related to nursing dependence and dependence degree (P < 0.05). Conclusion For elderly hospitalized patients with fthenia, the older the age, widowed, no physical exercise, need assistance to eat, dysphagia, abnormal defecation, hemiplegia and weakness, chronic wounds, history of falls and stress injuries, the higher the degree of dependence on nursing. In this regard, in-depth assessment of the patients condition and degree of dependence should be carried out in time, and targeted intervention measures should be taken in time. Reduce its dependence to the greatest extent, effectively meet its actual needs, and fundamentally reduce the occurrence of adverse events.
