Validity of the FRAIL-España scale for critically ill patients
The FRAIL-España model shows good convergent validity with age, dependency, marital status, comorbidities, perceived physical quality of life, and hospitalization in an acute care facility in the previous year. It has good predictive validity for ICU-acquired weakness, alterations in glycemic control and resource use, hospital discharge, and mortality. It is sensitive for detecting changes in frailty.
