Abstract
Neutrophil-to-Lymphocyte ratio (NLR) is an easily obtained, low-cost marker of inflammation that has been shown to correlate with higher mortality and longer hospital stays in patients undergoing open lower extremity revascularization procedures. However, NLR has never been compared to other established risk calculators. We compared the prognostic value of NLR to the modified frailty index (mFI), a validated frailty metric.
