Abstract | Purpose: To evaluate the utility of 5-Item Modified Frailty Index (mFI-5) as compared to chronological age in predicting outcomes of spinal osteotomy in Adult Spinal Deformity (ASD) patients. Methods: Using Current Procedural and Terminology (CPT) codes, the American College of Surgeons National Surgery Quality Improvement Program (ACS-NSQIP) database was queried for adult patients undergoing spinal osteotomy from 2015 to 2019. Multivariate regression analysis was performed to evaluate the effect of baseline frailty status, measured by mFI-5 score, and chronological age on postoperative outcomes. Receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was performed to analyze the discriminative performance of age versus mFI-5. Results: A total of 1,789 spinal osteotomy patients (median age 62 years) were included in the analysis. Among the patients assessed, 38.5% (n = 689) were pre-frail, 14.6% frail (n = 262), and 2.2% (n = 39) severely frail using the mFI-5. Based on the multivariate analysis, increasing frailty tier was associated with worsening outcomes, and higher odds ratios (OR) for poor outcomes were found for increasing frailty tiers as compared to age. Severe frailty was associated with the worst outcomes, e.g., unplanned readmission (OR 9.618, [95% CI 4.054-22.818], p < 0.001) and major complications (OR 5.172, [95% CI 2.271-11.783], p < 0.001). In the ROC curve analysis, mFI-5 score (AUC 0.838) demonstrated superior discriminative performance than age (AUC 0.601) for mortality. Conclusions: The mFI5 frailty score was found to be a better predictor than age of worse postoperative outcomes in ASD patients. Incorporating frailty in preoperative risk stratification is recommended in ASD surgery. |
