Role of frailty in prediction of hospitalized older adult patient’s outcomes: a prospective study

In the fully-adjusted model for readmission, the pre-frail participants had a higher risk of readmission at the hospital in comparison with the nonfrail and frail groups (OR = 1.88, 95% CI = 1.90–3.26), and also for GP visits, frail patients showed nearly significant differences (OR = 2.45, 95% CI = 0.99–6.06) but there were no differences between frail and pre-frail patients in readmissions in the emergency ward.
