Frailty in elderly patients with non-ST elevation myocardial infarction: Balancing the risks and benefits of percutaneous coronary intervention

applied the hospital frailty risk score to stratify outcomes in elderly patients (≥ 75 years) undergoing PCI.

In this letter to the editor, we reflect on these findings and discuss them in relation to current literature, practice guidelines, and future directions for managing frail elderly patients with NSTEMI.
