This review presents results of clinical studies of senile asthenia ("fragility") syndrome and chronic heart failure (CHF). Recent reports of the "fragility" prevalence in patients with CHF are described. The review presents specific features of pathophysiological pathways underlying the development of both senile asthenia syndrome and CHF; the role of "fragility" in the progression and complications of CHF is addressed. Senile asthenia syndrome associated with CHF is regarded as an independent predictor of unfavorable prognosis and high mortality in this patient category. The authors concluded that methods for "fragility" evaluation in CHF patients followed by risk stratification and selection of individual management tactics should be implemented in clinical practice.

According to the federal register, up to 3,77 million elderly Russians have a confirmed diagnosis of type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2), the most important criterion for the effectiveness of treatment of which is the achievement of therapeutic control targets. At the same time, the structure of the algorithm for their assessment in elderly patients is quite complex and involves the analysis of many different parameters, including indicators of geriatric status. The aim of the study was to develop a digital clinical calculator for determining individual goals of DM2 control in elderly patients based on the principles of evidence-based medicine.

Research on the condition of the lungs in senile people is an urgent task. This is due to the fact that degenerative or age-associated changes in the respiratory system play an important role in the formation of senile asthenia syndrome and a decrease in the age-related viability of the body as a whole. CT-scans of patients aged 80-90 years were analyzed (n=31).

The purpose of this review is to demonstrate the importance of using a comprehensive geriatric examination in cardiology, including geriatric aspects of the management of this patient population. Until now, the Russian Federation has completely lacked a geriatric approach to the management of cardiological patients, which provides for consideration of international experience in this survey. The curation of elderly and elderly patients is complicated by the presence of geriatric syndromes and age-associated diseases leading to deterioration of quality of life, repeated hospitalizations, disability and risk of death.

The great complexity of complex geriatric assessment makes it relevant to search for methods that facilitate the selection of patients who really need it. The article presents the results of studying the possibility of using a routine clinical examination to select elderly cardiological patients with an increased risk of senile asthenia. The study involved 52 elderly patients with heart and vascular pathology.
