Association Between the FRAIL Scale and Postoperative Complications in Older Surgical Patients: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis – Anesthesia & Analgesia

Commentary on Twitter

Study showing FRAIL scale association with 30-d & 6 mo mortality, postop complications, & delirium.Odds ratios are nice but actual% may be more helpful.If OR is 3 but % complications is 0.5%, it’s not that meaningful.Need both for informed decision-makinghttps://t.co/V5qfEDHslQ
