| Abstract (English): | OBJECTIVE: To determine the correlation between the assessment tools used in the comprehensive geriatric assessment of elderly individuals institutionalized in a geriatric institute in San Luis Potosí. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A retrospective, cross-sectional, descriptive, and exploratory study was conducted on older adults admitted to the Dr. Nicolás Aguilar Geriatric Institute between November 2023 and February 2024. The following were evaluated: the Charlson Comorbidity Index; the Barthel Index; the Short Physical Performance Battery; the Pfeiffer Questionnaire for Cognition; the Mini Nutritional Assessment-Short Form (MNA-SF) for nutritional status; the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) for psychological status (depression); the Older Adult Risk Screen (OARS) for social issues; the Frailty Index (FRAIL) for frailty; and the SARC-F for sarcopenia. RESULTS: A total of 45 adults with a median age of 81.64 years were analyzed. Most of the participants were women (n = 26) with six years of schooling or less (n = 40). The mean Charlson comorbidity index was 2.33 ± 1.44. Systemic arterial hypertension was the most prevalent disease, followed by depression. The OARS reported a median of 1, with 23 participants having completely impaired social resources. The FRAIL scale reported a median of 2, with only one participant categorized as not frail. The SARC-F reported a median score of 8, with 40 participants having a high probability of sarcopenia. CONCLUSIONS: The correlation between the scales that comprise the comprehensive geriatric assessment reinforces its multidimensional nature. This highlights the importance of assessing the geriatric population in a comprehensive and integrated manner, thereby enabling the design of action plans that promote healthy aging.

| Abstract (Spanish): | OBJETIVO: Determinar la correlación entre los instrumentos de evaluación utilizados en la valoración geriátrica integral en personas mayores institucionalizadas en un instituto geriátrico de San Luis Potosí. MATERIALES Y MÉTODOS: Estudio retrolectivo, transversal, descriptivo y exploratorio efectuado en adultos mayores ingresados al Instituto Geriátrico Dr. Nicolás Aguilar entre noviembre del 2023 y febrero del 2024. Se evaluaron: el índice de comorbilidad de Charlson, el índice de Barthel, la batería corta de desempeño físico, el cuestionario de Pfeiffer para la cognición, MNA-SF para el estado nutricional, PHQ-9 para el estado psicológico (depresión), OARS para cuestiones sociales, FRAIL para fragilidad y SARC-F para sarcopenia. RESULTADOS: Se analizaron 45 adultos con edad mediana de 81.64 años, la mayoría mujeres (n = 26), con escolaridad de seis años o menos (n = 40). El índice de comorbilidad de Charlson reportó una media de 2.33 ± 1.44. La hipertensión arterial sistémica fue la enfermedad más prevalente, seguida de depresión. OARS reportó una mediana de 1 (RIC = 2), con 23 participantes con recursos sociales totalmente deteriorados. FRAIL reportó una mediana de 2, solo 1 participante se categorizó sin fragilidad. SARCF reportó una mediana de 8, 40 participantes tenían alta probabilidad de sarcopenia. CONCLUSIONES: La correlación entre las escalas que componen la valoración geriátrica integral fortalece su carácter multidimensional. Se destaca la importancia de valorar de manera conjunta global e integral a la población geriátrica y, de esta forma, diseñar planes de acción que contribuyan a promover un envejecimiento saludable.
