- Abstract: Frailty is related to the aging of the elderly,characterized by the decline of multi-sys-tem physiological functions and the increase of susceptibility.Both frailty and brain function decline are associated with age increase,and brain health can affect the postoperative outcomes and long-term quality of life in elderly patients.This paper provided a review on the relationship between frailty and brain health,specifically elaborating on the relationships of frailty with olfactory function decline,sleep disorders,and cognitive function,and aimed to remind medical staffs to pay attention to the frailty and brain function status of elderly patients,strengthen early evaluation and intervention,and improve the quality of life of elderly patients.
