Brief Summary: The effectiveness of assessing postoperative outcomes in eldely patients undergoing major abdominal surgery through the Frailty Scale and Katz Activities of Daily Living evaluation is investigated in individuals aged 65-85 The secondary objective is to determine the prevalence of frailty in patients undergoing surgical procedures
Detailed Description: Peoples life expectancy is increasing rapidly in line with technological progress in the quality of medical care According to projections by the World Health Organization it is estimated that by 2030 one in six people worldwide will be aged 60 and above This figure is expected to reach 21 bilion by 2050 with the number of individuals aged 80 and above reaching 426 millionSurgical interventions in elderly patients are associated with increased rates of major complictions prolonged hospital stays unplanned readmissions and transfers to rehabilitation center indicating adverse health outcomes Therefore considering the population growth rate it is inevitable to develop new methods i planning surgical interventions for the elderly As this point challenges in surgical planning for individuals fallling under the definition of frail eldely become more pronounced Frailty is a biological syndrome resulting from cumulative declines in multiple physiological systems leading to vulnerability aganist adverse outcomes characterized by areduction in reserves and resistance to stress factors This concept is considered an independent risk factor in predicting and managing postoperative adverse outcomes beyond aging and comorbidity conditionsTaking into account its determinative impact on surgical outcomes focusing on the planning of surgical procudures and optimizing postoperative results for patients falling under the definition of frail elderly can provide a suitable perspective Numerous tools have been developed in the literature to measure frailty however there is no standardized and approved method for perioperative assessmentThe FRAIL Scale frequently applied in clinical practice to determine levels of frailty is a practical and straightforward tool The application scoring and interpretation of this brief measurement based on interviews are easy Another easy way to assess the health status of the elderly is to perform a functional assesment that indicates vulnerability and provides objective data Among the tools used to assess basic activities of daily living the Katz Index of Independence in Activities of Daily Living is one of the best-known and most commonly used scales clinical practice and research studiesThe study aims to determine the effectiveness of FRAIL Scale and Katz Activities of Daily Living assessments in predicting postoperative outcomes including hospital stayintensive care needs readmission rates and duration reoperation necessity and their associations with morbidity and mortality in patients aged 65-85 undergoing major abdominal surgery and identified in the frail elderly stage
