- The Hospital Frailty Risk Score (HFRS) predicts 28-day mortality in older critically ill patients with acute ischemic stroke.
- HFRS showed a nonlinear relationship with mortality, with a threshold effect at 10.5.
- Below 10.5, each 1-unit HFRS increase raised mortality risk by 19%; above it, risk increase attenuated.
- HFRS outperformed SOFA, CCI, and GCS scores in predictive accuracy (AUC 70.6%).
- High-risk frailty patients had about 4.3 times higher mortality risk compared to low-risk.
- HFRS is a reliable tool for assessing short-term mortality risk in this patient group.
