Clinical Frailty Assessment and Postoperative Adverse Outcomes and Quality of Life in Elderly Patients

Summary

The frailty index may represent a useful decision support tool to optimize modifiable drivers of the quality and cost of digestive surgery care. However, classical indices are cumbersome to compute and often require unavailable data. The number of operations in the elderly is gradually increasing, and the prevention and treatment of adverse postoperative outcomes has become the focus of clinical attention. More recently, clinicians have focused more on the association between frailty and adverse postoperative outcomes, but this has not been rigorously applied to long-term prospective studies in older patients.
