Excerpt

Frailty, a multi-system decline in health status resulting from the cumulative impairment of homeostatic reserve (i.e., energy, physical ability, cognition), is increasingly recognized as an important prognostic determinant of outcome among critically ill populations [13]. Frailty predisposes to disproportionate and heightened vulnerability to adverse outcomes from acute stressors such as infection, surgery, or trauma. As many as one-third of adult critically ill patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) have been shown to be screened as frail, with the prevalence increasing with older age [1, 2, 4]. …
