Abstract

Cardiac risk assessment in aging patients poses a significant challenge to the practicing clinician, particularly when evaluating the use of invasive procedures. Frailty is a valuable risk marker that has been associated with worse outcomes in patients with coronary artery disease, heart failure, and aortic stenosis. Integrating the available frailty studies into cardiac risk assessments can help improve shared decision-making between physicians and their patients. In this review, we provide an up-to-date, case-based appraisal of the available clinical trial data focusing on the impact of frailty in patients with cardiovascular disease.
