NSQIP 5-factor modified frailty index and complications after ileal anal pouch anastomosis for ulcerative colitis
CONCLUSION: IPAA for CUC is associated with high postoperative morbidity, however, the mFI-5 alone has limited utility in determining which patients are at a higher risk of complications due to frailty. These observations suggest there is a need for more relevant instruments to measure frailty in this patient cohort.PMID:38601734 | PMC:PMC11004715 | DOI:10.1016/j.sopen.2024.03.011
