- Allocation: RandomizedIntervention Model: Parallel AssignmentIntervention Model Description: set of interventions can be carried out by making an initial diagnosis of pre-frailty or frailty using instruments and simple validated tests. This is indicated or thus recommended in the guidelines from national and international societies (24-25). In this sense, we can use a comprehensive assessment of the VALINTAN (computerized) tool, a VGI-type assessment, whose axis is function, focusing on predefined diagnoses associated with effective documented interventions or with functional fragility or loss. Currently the tool is open and freely accessible (26).Masking: Single (Participant)Masking Description: It has been explained to the patient that the exercises that they are going to perform are going to serve for their functional improvement, but the exercises are different depending on the group to which they have been assigned randomly.Primary Purpose: Treatment
Participation Requirements
- Age
- Between 70 years and 125 years

Therefore, and given the information in both directions, we consider that it is necessary to determine the efficacy in the evidence of both actions (multicomponent exercise and vestibular exercises) to improve functional capacity and thus prevent falls, conducting a randomized clinical trial that compares the effectiveness of both interventions. Given the special circumstances during the COVID-19 pandemic, an online or virtual follow-up is necessary to achieve the exercises, building a resource website and helping virtual access and monitoring to carry out the personalized exercise. Thus, this set of interventions can be carried out by making an initial diagnosis of pre-frailty or frailty using instruments and simple validated tests. This is indicated or recommended in the guidelines from national and international societies. In this sense, we can avail ourselves of a comprehensive assessment of the VALINTAN tool (computerized comprehensive assessment of the elderly and used in primary care), whose axis is function, focuses on predefined diagnoses associated with effective documented interventions or with the fragility or functional loss. Currently the tool is open and freely accessible
