Abstract

Abstract

Frailty has evolved from a single concept emphasizing physical frailty to a multidimensional concept, including physical frailty, cognitive frailty, and social frailty. Chronic pain is a global public health issue that negatively impacts older adults′ life quality. Previous research has discovered that chronic pain is a significant risk factor for physical frailty in older adults. Studies on chronic pain, cognitive frailty, and social frailty have also increased in recent years. This study systematically reviews the progress of research on chronic pain and multidimensional frailty in older adults, summarizes the assessment methods of chronic pain and multidimensional frailty in older adults, and explores the correlation between chronic pain and multidimensional frailty in older adults and their potential mechanisms, with the aim of contributing to the early prevention of multidimensional frailty and its intervention in older adults, and effectively promoting healthy aging.
- Chronic pain,
- Physical frailty,
