Article Synopsis
- Femoral hernias can lead to serious health issues, especially due to the risk of strangulation, and frailty is linked to worse outcomes post-surgery.
- This study analyzed patients who had femoral hernia repairs, separating them into frail and non-frail groups, and assessed various factors including age and sex on their recovery outcomes.
- Results indicated that frail patients had significantly higher rates of complications, longer hospital stays, and a higher risk of death within 30 days compared to non-frail patients, highlighting frailty as a key risk factor for poor recovery.
