Frailty index as a predictor of mortality: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Age and ageing - 1 Mar 2018

Kojima Gotaro, Iliffe Steve, Walters Kate

Abstract excerpt

Background: two popular operational definitions of frailty, the frailty phenotype and Frailty index (FI), are based on different theories. Although FI was shown to be superior in predicting mortality to the frailty phenotype, no meta-analysis on mortality risk according to FI has been found in the literature. Methods: an electronic systematic literature search was conducted in August 2016 using four databases...
