Why the study?
Do objective nutritional indexes (CONUT score, PNI, GNRI) predict mortality in elderly patients with severe aortic stenosis after surgical aortic valve replacement?
Do objective nutritional indexes (CONUT score, PNI, GNRI) predict mortality in elderly patients with severe aortic stenosis after surgical aortic valve replacement?
Objective nutritional indexes (CONUT, PNI, GNRI) are important prognostic factors for mortality after SAVR in elderly patients with severe AS and should be included in frailty assessments.
Nutritional indexes may aid mortality risk stratification after SAVR; hypothesis-generating for frailty integration pending prospective validation.
Objective nutritional indexes including CONUT score, PNI, and GNRI are important prognostic factors and those indexes should be part of frailty assessment in patients with severe AS.
