Abstract: Background:Hip fracture is a devastating health-care problem in a geriatric patient, leading to high mortality and morbidity. Preoperative risk assessment in the geriatric patient is often inexact because of the difficulty in measuring their poor physiologic reserves.Aims:The primary objective was to find the association of modified frailty index (MFI) with 90-day mortality in geriatric patients who received anesthesia for fractured hip. Secondary objectives were to assess the association of preoperative waiti… Show more

“…Indeed, it is growingly accepted that the provision of early clinical interventions in the realm of orthogeriatrics has significant prognostic importance, potentially delaying frailty trajectories, reversing at least partially some degree of frailty or augmenting patient's intrinsic capacity and resilience 36‐38 …”

“…Moreover, it increases the burden on caregivers, families, as well as the society at large. The number of geriatric patients with hip fracture has dramatically increased over the last decade [13]. Hip fractures are the second most common cause of hospitalization of elderly patients, with an estimated annual cost of over $650 million [3, 4].…”

“…4 However, they did not explore the relationships between preoperative frailty and rehabilitation. Several studies [7][8][9][10] have documented the FI preoperatively, not postoperatively. The appeal of measuring frailty preoperation lies in its utility both as a tool for risk stratification and as a method for identifying potentially modifiable factors that can be optimized preoperatively.…”

“…The Canadian study of health and aging frailty index (CSHA-FI) 12 is closely correlated with a more multidimensional concept of frailty. The modified FI (mFI) derived from the CSHA has been used in hip fracture 9,13 and is associated with 1- and 2-year mortality rates after a femoral neck fracture. 5 However, mFI mainly involves comorbidities and functional assessment and is too simple for comprehensive assessment.…”
