Abbreviations: OSS, Operative Stress Score; RAI, Risk Analysis Index.

a

The categories are defined as follows: OSS 1, very low stress; OSS 2, low stress; OSS 3, moderate stress; OSS 4, high stress; and OSS 5, very high stress.

b

The Risk Analysis Index is based on the accumulation of deficits model of frailty and uses 14 variables to generate a score from 0 to 81, with higher scores indicating more frailty.
