Association between Active Hobby before Hospitalization and Frailty at Discharge in Patients with Acute Cardiovascular Disease.

Objectives: It is essential to identify the factors that reduce the risk of frailty at discharge in patients with cardiovascular disease. We sought to verify the association between pre-admission hobbies and frailty at discharge in patients hospitalized for acute cardiovascular diseases.

Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the cases of the 269 patients admitted to our hospital with cardiovascular diseases, excluding those who required assistance with activities of daily living before admission or had missing data on hobbies or frailty.
