All SARC-F-based approaches were associated with prolonged length of stay and 1-year mortality in older inpatients, highlighting their prognostic value.
Do SARC-F and its modified versions predict prolonged hospital stay and 1-year mortality in older inpatients?
SARC-F and its modified versions serve as prognostic tools for predicting prolonged hospital stay and 1-year mortality in older inpatients.
Absolute Event Rate: 0% vs 0%
Our study demonstrates that all SARC-F-based approaches are linked to prolonged LOS, and almost all approaches were also linked to 1-year mortality. We also introduce the novel BMI-adjusted SARC-CalF + MUAC version, pending future validation.
