Resum

Objective: To evaluate the effect of frailty on health resource use in aged population with cancer. Method: Population -based cohort study with retrospective data collection and follow-up from January 2018 to December 2019 in people >= 65 years with cancer. Results: Overall, 996 individuals were included, with a prevalence of frailty of 22.1%. Mortality at 2 years was 14.1% in the frail and 9.0% in the non-frail (p = 0.028). Independently of age and sex, frailty increased the number of urgent hospitalizations (168%) and planned hospitalizations (64%), visits to the emergency room (111%), outpatient consultations (59%), day hospital sessions (30%) and visits to primary care (114%). Conclusions: Frailty is more prevalent, determines a poorer prognostic and is associated with higher health resource use in aged population with cancer. (c) 2024 SESPAS.
