Summary
The goal of this feasibility randomized controlled trial is to investigate the applicability of software that aims to improve symptoms of frailty by implementing customized interventions such as physical exercise and cognitive training implemented through a mobile app for 16 weeks for patients diagnosed with frailty or prefrailty. The primary outcomes are adherence, retention rates, and recruitment rates. Participants will participate in customized interventions including physical exercise, cognitive training, nutritional guidance, and management of disease related to frailty for 16 weeks.
