Abstract

RESULTS: A total of 350 patients were enrolled, 38% of whom were frail and 26% were pre-frail. In-hospital TSFI was independently associated with in-hospital complications (odds ratio [OR] [95% CI], 1.8 [1.2-2.6], p1⁄40.02) and discharge to an institutional facility (1.3 [1.1-2.1], p1⁄40.01). In-hospital mortality was recorded in 2.8% (n1⁄410). Six-month follow-up was recorded in 80% (n1⁄4271) of the patients. At 6-month follow-up, frail patients were more likely to have falls, trauma readmission, and mortality (Table). In-hospital TSFI had 86% sensitivity and 92% negative predictive value to predict falls within 6 months of hospital discharge.
