Concurrent and Predictive Validity of a New Frailty Risk Index “ <scp>FR</scp> ‐ <scp>IC</scp> Index”: A Follow‐Up Study of Older Outpatients
The FR-IC index demonstrated good concurrent validity for baseline disability and significant predictive validity for 1-year deterioration in disability among older outpatients. This tool may enable effective risk stratification and seamless monitoring of physical and mental capacities across the aging trajectory in clinical settings.
