Abstract
A method creates a frailty indicator value for a person using a hearing instrument. At least one acceleration sensor of the hearing instrument collects first movement data relating to a stumble and/or fall. A skin sensor of the hearing instrument and/or a skin sensor of a first auxiliary device, which can be connected to the hearing instrument for data purposes, collects second moisture-related data in the immediate time surrounding the stumble or fall, in particular data relating to an electrodermal activity, which afford information about physiological and/or psychological circumstances in the time surrounding the stumble or fall. The frailty indicator value is generated on the basis of the first movement data and on the basis of the second moisture-related data.
