The Decisiveness of MFI-11 in Predicting Complications in Patients > 65 Years Who Underwent EBUS-TBNA Under Sedation

Completed

• Conditions: Monitored Anesthesia Care; Sedation Complication; EBUS Guided Transbronchial Needle Aspiration; Elderly Patients

• Registration Number: NCT06174168
• Lead Sponsor: Ankara Ataturk Sanatorium Training and Research Hospital

Brief Summary

The aim is to evaluate the feasibility of MFI-11, one of the comprehensive frailty tests, before EBUS-TBNA. The secondary aim is to evaluate the usefulness of MFI-11 in predicting complications in risk assessment before EBUS-TBNA.

Detailed Description

Patients who will receive anesthesia are directed to the anesthesia clinic for preoperative evaluation. The primary purpose of preoperative assessment is to reduce perioperative morbidity and increase quality, reduce the cost of perioperative care, and ensure that the patient recovers as quickly as possible. In this context, the American Society of Anesthesiology (ASA) score is a classification that includes medical comorbidities. The classification system alone does not predict perioperative risks, but when combined with other factors (e.g. type of surgery, frailty) it may help predict perioperative risks. Age is not among the criteria in the ASA.

In elderly patients, the indicator of decreased reserves and resulting weakness is called "frailty". Frailty is considered vulnerability and functional impairment caused by a significant decline in multiple systems. Objective, repeatable, and accepted scales must be used when evaluating frailty. MFI-11 is a strong predictor of mortality and postoperative complications.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Modified Fraility Index -11	Preoperative 1 time	In elderly patients, the indicator of decreased reserves and resulting weakness is called "frailty". Frailty is considered vulnerability and functional impairment caused by a significant decline in multiple systems. When evaluating frailty, objective, repeatable and accepted scales must be used. MFI-11 is a strong predictor of mortality and postoperative complications. MFI-11 is calculated by dividing the existing deficits by the total number of deficits. Each parameter is 1 point, and the MFI-11 score will be calculated by adding all the points and dividing by 11. The higher this score, the more frail the patient. As a result of studies comparing frailty, if the MFI-11 score is greater than ≥ 0.27, these patients are defined as frail.
