“…These three components of the SPPB are precisely what characterize the assessment of physical frailty. Therefore, at Juntendo University Hospital, these three SPPB components plus the walking distance (endurance) component are evaluated regularly on a daily basis to standardize the training menu ( Table 1 ) 12) . For example, if the patient can perform semi-tandem standing for 10 seconds in the balance test, but tandem standing is difficult, the 4-meter walking time is slow at 9.2 seconds, and the patient cannot stand without upper limb support (can stand using a handrail) in the standing test.…”

Daily health management and exercise are important for staying healthy and avoiding the need for long-term care. However, it is not easy to maintain regular exercise. Therefore, exercise needs to be done efficiently. In recent years, due to the aging population and increasing severity of illness, older patients often experience a significant decline in physical function, even with minimal rest, which often interferes with their daily life after discharge from the hospital. Frailty not only affects ADLs, but also strongly influences prognosis, including the development of atherosclerotic disease and rehospitalization. This perspective is a summary of the 51st Metropolitan Public Lecture held on June 17, 2023, and discusses exercise-based rehabilitation programs that can be delivered at home to prevent physical frailty and avoid hospitalization-related disability.
