In the Belgian SENIOR study, which compared characteristics of 211 nursing home residents who had falls within 1 year of follow-up vs 354 who did not fall, among 12 frailty tools considered, the Groningen indicator was the only one with bivariate significance (p<0.05), and SHARE-FI was the only with a trend towards significance (p<0.10, frailty more prevalent in fallers: 29% vs 27%); however, when 1-year mortality was considered in the same cohort (93 deceased vs 491 not deceased), SHARE-FI had the best discrimination (p=0.01, frailty more prevalent in the deceased: 55% vs 39%)[ 59 ].
