Summary
This study looked at whether a simple frailty test (Edmonton Frailty Index) can predict complications after colorectal cancer surgery in people aged 65 and older. Researchers followed 200 patients for 30 days after surgery to track problems like infections, heart issues, and length of hospital stay. The goal is to help doctors better assess risk and plan safer care for older patients.
