Resumo:Objective: To analyze the association between frailty and social, nutritional aspects, violence and depression among elderly people treated in Primary Health Care. Methods: Cross-sectional, comparative study, with a quantitative approach, carried out in primary health care in the city of Santa Cruz-RN , with 47 elderly people cared for in the study scenario. The collection instruments used were the Edmonton Frailty Scale, the Geriatric Depression Scale, the Mini Nutritional Assessment instrument, the Elder Abuse Screening Test violence scale and the socioeconomic data questionnaire. The Statistical Package for the Social Sciences version 20.0 software enabled all statistical analyses. Results: The average age was 60 to 79 years (72.3%); with a predominance of male individuals (70.2%); 48.9% had some level of frailty assessed within the aspects of the Edmonton Frailty Scale. The association analysis highlighted that the variables Nutritional Status (Average= 26.8/ Standard Deviation 2.3/ p=0.004), Sarcopenia (Average=5.3/ Standard Deviation=5.4/ p=0.039), Risk of Violence (Average=1.5/ Standard Deviation= 1.4/ p=0.001) and Depression (Average=2.7 / Standard Deviation=1.8/ p<0.001) presented better scores in the group that did not have frailty. Conclusion: It is concluded that there is a fragility and nutritional status, sarcopenia, risk of violence and depression stood out. The group that did not present frailty exhibited better results in nutritional status, risk of violence and levels of depression. The frailty group, however, presented a better assessment of sarcopenia. The situation of violence did not show a significant difference between the groups.
