Summary
This study looked at 8,751 patients aged 65 and older who had elective non-cardiac, non-brain surgery. Researchers examined how patients' health and daily function before surgery related to serious heart and brain complications within 30 days after surgery. The goal was to compare different assessment tools to see which best predicts risks.

If successful, this could help doctors better identify which older patients are at higher risk for complications after surgery, leading to more personalized care.
What could go wrong
This is an observational analysis of existing data, not a controlled trial. It can show associations but cannot prove cause and effect. Results may not apply to other populations or surgeries.
