DESIGN Retrospective observational cohort study. SETTING Urban, American College of Surgeons-Verified, Level-1, Trauma Center. PATIENTS/PARTICIPANTS Seventeen-thousand one hundred nine adult patients under the age of 65 sustaining lower extremity fractures undergoing operative intervention from 2006 to 2018. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES On admission, mFI and albumin levels were obtained, as well as complication data. Statistical analysis was used to analyze the association between frailty, malnutrition, and postoperative complications. Patients were stratified, healthy (mFI ≤1, albumin ≥3.5 g/dL), malnourished (mFI ≤1, albumin |
