Brief Summary:
The aim is to evaluate the feasibility of MFI-11, one of the comprehensive frailty tests, before EBUS-TBNA. The secondary aim is to evaluate the usefulness of MFI-11 in predicting complications in risk assessment before EBUS-TBNA.
Detailed Description:
Patients who will receive anesthesia are directed to the anesthesia clinic for preoperative evaluation. The primary purpose of preoperative assessment is to reduce perioperative morbidity and increase quality, reduce the cost of perioperative care, and ensure that the patient recovers as quickly as possible. In this context, the American Society of Anesthesiology (ASA) score is a classification that includes medical comorbidities. The classification system alone does not predict perioperative risks, but when combined with other factors (e.g. type of surgery, frailty) it may help predict perioperative risks. Age is not among the criteria in the ASA.
In elderly patients, the indicator of decreased reserves and resulting weakness is called "frailty". Frailty is considered vulnerability and functional impairment caused by a significant decline in multiple systems. Objective, repeatable, and accepted scales must be used when evaluating frailty. MFI-11 is a strong predictor of mortality and postoperative complications.
