Resumen

La fragilidad es una afección prevalente entre los canadienses: más de un millón de personas están diagnosticadas como médicamente frágiles, y en los próximos diez años esta cifra se duplicará. Las tecnologías de la información y la telecomunicación pueden proporcionar un método de bajo coste para gestionar la fragilidad de forma más proactiva. Este estudio tiene como objetivo examinar la gama y el alcance de las tecnologías de la información y las telecomunicaciones para la gestión de la fragilidad en los adultos mayores, su nivel de preparación tecnológica, la evidencia y los resultados asociados. Se realizó una revisión sistemática de la literatura. Se buscaron estudios en cuatro bases de datos: Medline, EMBASE, CINAHL, y Web of Science. En total, se incluyeron 19 estudios (de un total de 9.930) para la extracción de datos. En general, nuestros resultados indican que (1) el fenotipo de fragilidad propuesto es la verdad básica más comúnmente utilizada para evaluar la fragilidad; (2) los usos más comunes de las tecnologías de la información y las telecomunicaciones para la gestión de la fragilidad son la detección, y la monitorización y detección, mientras que los estudios intervencionistas sobre fragilidad son muy raros; (3) los cinco tipos principales de tecnologías de la información y la telecomunicación para la gestión de la fragilidad en adultos mayores son plataformas basadas en tecnologías de la información y la telecomunicación, smartphones, telemonitorización (monitorización a domicilio), sensores y dispositivos portátiles (comerciales), y formatos multimedia para el acceso online; (4) el nivel de preparación tecnológica de las tecnologías de la información y telecomunicación para el manejo de la fragilidad en adultos mayores es el nivel de "Demostración Tecnológica", es decir, aún no están preparadas para funcionar en un entorno operativo real; y (5) el nivel de evidencia es aún bajo para los estudios de tecnologías de la información y telecomunicación que manejan la fragilidad en adultos mayores. En conclusión, las tecnologías de la información y telecomunicación para gestionar la fragilidad en la población de adultos mayores no están todavía preparadas para ser tecnologías de pleno derecho para este propósito.
