Assessment of Predictive Validity and Feasibility of Edmonton Frailty Scale in Identifying Postoperative Complications among Asian Elderly Patients A Prospective Observational Study

2019-10-18

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Background Frailty is defined as diminished physiological reserve predisposing one to adverse outcomes when exposed to stressors. Currently, there is no standardized frailty assessment tool used perioperatively. Edmonton Frail Scale (EFS), which is validated for use by non-geriatricians and in selected surgical populations, is a candidate for this role. Scores ranging from “non-frail” (...
