CAC scoring is...

Frailty is a marker of poor prognosis and is often undertreated and predisposed to adverse outcomes. This study aimed to determine the association between frailty and outcomes in hospitalized patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). A retrospective cross-sectional analysis of the National Inpatient Sample (2016-2020) was conducted to evaluate hospitalizations for HFrEF. Frailty was defined as a hospital frailty risk score of ≥5. Patient demographics, comorbidities, and hospital characteristics were compared...
