Popis: The aim of this study was to compare the accuracy of 5-mFI (modified frailty index) to ASA score (American Society of Anesthesiologists score) in predicting postoperative mortality in patients with rectal cancer.The ability of each parameter to predict postoperative mortality was attested in 2 ways: Area under the curve (AUC) was determined using ROC curves analysis. A comparison of AUC was performed using Delong test and Henley-McNeil test.-Multivariate analysis to determine the weight of each variable in predicting postoperative mortality.The records of 109 patients undergoing surgical resection, for curative intent, for rectal cancer, were analyzed. Nine patients died during the 30-day postoperative period (8.25%). The optimum cutoff for 5-mFI to predict mortality using the ROC analysis was 1.5. The AUC at the cut-off point was 0.93. The optimum cutoff for ASA score to predict mortality was 1.5 and the AUC at the cut-off point was 0.81. The AUC of 5-mFI was significantly higher than the AUC of ASA score (p 0.0001 using Delong test and p = 0.0024 using Hanley and McNeil test).On univariate analysis, predictive factors of mortality were: age (p = 0.002), ASA score≥2 (p = 0.0001) and 5-mFI≥2 (p = 0.0001). On multivariate analysis, 5-mFI≥2 was the only factor significantly associated with increased odds of postoperative mortality (OR = 1.73; 95% CI 1.05-2.01).5-mFI was more accurate than ASA score in predicting postoperative mortality in patients with rectal cancer.
