ClinConnect Summary
This clinical trial is looking to understand how common fibromyalgia syndrome is among patients aged 80 and older. Fibromyalgia is a condition that causes widespread pain, fatigue, and other symptoms, which can be particularly challenging for elderly individuals. The researchers want to see how fibromyalgia relates to various health factors in older adults to improve understanding and care for this age group.
To participate in this study, individuals must be 80 years or older and have undergone a thorough health assessment. Unfortunately, some people won't be eligible, including those with certain brain diseases like dementia, those who are unable to move on their own, or anyone who has recently had a serious illness or severe hearing loss. Those who join the trial can expect to provide detailed information about their health and symptoms, helping researchers learn more about fibromyalgia in older adults and possibly leading to better treatments in the future.
