Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Effectiveness of the FRAIL scale in predicting postoperative outcomes

  5 questions of the FRAIL Scale were asked.Questions that evaluated fatigue(How tired have you felt in the last 4 weeks?),resistance(Do you have difficulty climbing 10 flights of stairs on your own, without using any assistive devices, without resting?), wandering (Do you have difficulty walking a few hundred meters on your own and without using an assistive device?), diseases ( How many of the 11 diseases we will list have been told to you by a doctor before as your "disease"? Hypertension, diabetes, cancer (other than minor skin cancer), chronic lung disease, myocardial infarction, congestive heart failure, angina, asthma, arthritis, kidney disease and stroke) and unintentional weight loss (Have you lost 5% of your body weight in the last year?) were given "0" and "1" points. At the end of a total of 5 questions, those who scored 0 points were considered "non-frail", those who scored 1-2 points were considered "pre-frail", and those who scored 3-5 points were considered "frail".
