Prognostic Impact of Frailty Assessed by Edmondon in Elderly Patient Undergoing Cardiac Surgery

Completed

• Conditions: Elective Cardiac Surgery

• Registration Number: NCT02407873
• Lead Sponsor: University of Liege

Brief Summary

The score on the Edmonton frail scale will be recorded in 250 consecutive patient aged of 75 years or more and undergoing elective cardiac surgery. In those patients the investigators will also record the ITU length of stay, the hospital length of stay, the incidence of complications, the ability to be discharged home and to live independently at postoperative day 30.

The ability of the Edmonton score to predict complication, prolonged hospital and ITU length of stay as well as loss of autonomy at discharge and day 30 will be assessed.
