ABSTRACT={In order to anticipate preventive measures to support and maintain functional autonomy community-dwelling in elderly people followed prospectively and consequently delay loss of independence, a comprehension of the concept of functional independence trajectories is necessary. The aim of this paper is to create a readable synthesis of the resources available in the literature for different functional independence trajectories of older person and the methods of prevention proposed to maintain autonomy. The resources discussed in this document are clinical, mathematical and statistical.}}
