A comparative analysis of the Hospital Frailty Risk Score in predicting postoperative outcomes among intracranial tumor patients

CONCLUSIONS: The study findings suggest that the HFRS is an effective predictor of postoperative outcomes in intracranial tumor patients and more effectively predicts adverse outcomes than other frailty indices. The HFRS may serve as an important tool for reducing patient morbidity and mortality in intracranial tumor surgery.PMID:36577033 | DOI:10.3171/2022.11.JNS222033
