Abstract
Decline in functional ability among the elderly is of clinical relevance as a marker of potentially treatable clinical disease. It is possible to screen older people for mobility issues and apply early interventions to prevent mobility problems and rehabilitate existing mobility impairments. This article discusses the predictors of mobility decline, available screening tools and the prevention and management of mobility impairment in primary care.
