Popis: s S181 were frail. Frailty was independent of age, LVEF and renal function. Frailty (by FP or mFP) was associated with anemia, hypoalbuminemia and mortality (Figure). Using Cox proportional hazards model, frailty as assessed by mFP remained an independent predictor of survival but frailty as assessed by FP did not. Conclusion: Frailty is common in HTE patients with AHF. Inclusion of cognitive and depression domains strengthens the relationship between frailty and mortality. Frailty assessment is useful in identifying AHF patients at high risk of early mortality.
