Summary
This study is testing whether a simple frailty scale can better predict serious outcomes like death or complications in older adults (65+) who come to the emergency room with pneumonia. Researchers will follow 150 patients to see if adding frailty information to standard pneumonia scores improves accuracy. The goal is to help doctors make better treatment decisions for this vulnerable group.
