Modified frailty index as an indicator for outcomes after lower extremity endovascular revascularization

For patients undergoing lower extremity endovascular revascularization, higher 5-factor frailty index was associated with increased hospital resource utilization and 30-day mortality. The 5-factor frailty index may be useful for preoperative risk stratification and predicting adverse outcomes in patients undergoing lower extremity endovascular revascularization.
