- Abstract
Objective: Frailty is a known risk factor for adverse outcomes after cardiac interventions. However, the extent to which it increases the likelihood of adverse outcomes in heart failure (HF) patients remains unexplored. Therefore, we conducted this systematic review and meta-analysis to quantify the impact of frailty on prognosis in this patient population., Design: Meta-analysis., Setting and Participants: PubMed and Embase were searched for studies that investigated the relationship between frailty and outcomes in patients with HF. The search period was from the beginning of the databases through to December 3, 2017., Measures: A total of 342 and 919 entries were retrieved from PubMed and Embase, respectively. Of these, 20 met our inclusion criteria and were therefore included., Results: Frailty significantly increased the risk of all-cause mortality [hazard ratio (HR) = 1.59, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.39-1.82, P < .0001, I
2 = 55%] and hospitalizations (HR = 1.31, 95% CI = 1.21-1.42, P < .0001, I2 = 0%). Moreover, it was predictive of all-cause mortality after ventricular assist device implantation for advanced HF (HR = 1.62, 95% CI = 1.35-1.94, P < .0001, I2 = 2%)., Conclusions/implications: Frailty is a significant predictor of all-cause mortality and hospital readmissions in HF. Assessment and close monitoring of frailty status of heart failure patients can potentially better guide clinical management of this population., (Copyright © 2018 AMDA – The Society for Post-Acute and Long-Term Care Medicine.

- Abstract
Background: Frailty has been identified as a risk factor for adverse clinical outcomes after cardiac intervention or surgery. However, whether it increases the risk of adverse outcomes in patients undergoing left ventricular assist device (LVAD) therapy has been controversial. Therefore, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of the frailty measures and clinical outcomes of length of stay and mortality in this setting., Methods: PubMed and Embase were searched until September 11, 2017, for studies evaluating the association between frailty and clinical outcomes in advanced heart failure patients undergoing LVAD implantation., Results: A total of 46 and 79 entries were retrieved from our search strategy. A total of 13 studies involving 3435 patients were included in the final meta-analysis (mean age: 57.7 ± 15.3 years; 79% male, follow-up duration was 13 ± 14 months). Compared to nonfrail patients (n = 2721), frail patients (n = 579) had significantly longer time-to-extubation (n = 3; mean difference: 45 ± 6 hours; I
2 : 0%) and hospital length of stay (n = 4; mean difference: 2.9 ± 1.2 days; P = .001; I2 : 21%). Frailty was not a predictor of inpatient or short-term mortality [n = 3; hazard ratio (HR): 1.22, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.66-2.26; P > .05; I2 : 0%] but predicted long-term mortality (n = 7; HR: 1.44, 95% CI: 1.15-1.80; P = .001; I2 : 0%)., Conclusions: Frailty leads to significantly longer time to extubation, hospital length of stay, and long-term mortality in advanced heart failure patients who have undergone LVAD implantation. Older patients being considered for LVAD implantation should therefore be assessed for frailty status. The risk and benefit of the procedure should be explained to the patient, emphasizing that frailty increases the likelihood of adverse clinical outcomes., (Copyright © 2017 AMDA – The Society for Post-Acute and Long-Term Care Medicine.

- Abstract
Background: Frailty has been identified as a risk factor for mortality. However, whether frailty increases mortality risk in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has been controversial. Therefore, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of the frailty measures and mortality outcomes in this setting., Methods: PubMed and EMBASE were searched until July 23, 2017 for studies evaluating the association between frailty measures and mortality in individuals who have undergone PCI., Results: A total of 141 entries were retrieved from our search strategy. A total of 8 studies involving 2332 patients were included in the final meta-analysis (mean age: 69 years; 68% male, follow-up duration was 30 ± 28 months). Frailty was a significant predictor of all-cause mortality after PCI, with a hazard ratio (HR) of 2.97 [95% confidence interval (CI) 1.56-5.66, P = .001]. This was substantial heterogeneity present (I
2 : 79%). Subgroup analysis using the Fried score reduced I2 to 68% without altering the pooled HR (2.78, 95% CI 1.02-7.76; P < .05). Using the Canadian Study of Health and Aging Clinical Frailty Scale reduced I2 to 0% while preserving the pooled HR (5.99, 95% CI 2.77-12.95, P < .001)., Conclusions: Frailty leads to significantly higher mortality rates in patients who have undergone PCI. Both the Fried score and Canadian Study of Health and Aging Clinical Frailty Scale are powerful predictors of mortality. These findings may support the notion that an alternative to invasive strategy should be considered in frail patients who are indicated for revascularization., (Copyright © 2017.
