Abstract Background Frailty is a multidimensional syndrome that leads to an increase in vulnerability. Previous studies have suggested that frailty is associated with poor health-related outcomes. For frailty screening, the Clinical Frailty Scale (CFS) is a simple tool that is widely used in various translated versions. We aimed to translate the CSF into Korean and evaluated its contents and concurrent validity. Methods Translations and back-translations of the CFS were conducted independently. A multidisciplinary team decided the final CFS-K. Between August 2019 and April 2020, a total of 100 outpatient and inpatient participants aged ≥65 years were enrolled prospectively. The clinical characteristics were evaluated using the CFS-K. The CFS-K scores were compared with those of other frailty screening tools using Pearson’s correlation coefficient and Spearman’s rank correlation. The area under curve (AUC) for identifying the Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group Performance Status (ECOG PS) grade 3 or more was calculated for the CFS-K and other screening tools. Results The mean age of the participants was 76.5 years (standard deviation [SD], 7.0), and 63 (63%) participants were male. The mean CFS-K was 4.8 (SD, 2.5). Low body mass index (p = 0.013) and low score on the Korean version of the Mini-Mental State Examination (p |
