Risk stratification of cardiac surgery patients is usually based on the Society of Thoracic Surgeons (STS) score, that has limited predictive value in older persons. We aimed assessing whether the Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB) improves, beyond the STS score, assessment of hospital prognosis in older patients undergoing elective cardiac surgery.

Abstract
Risk stratification of cardiac surgery patients is usually based on the Society of Thoracic Surgeons (STS) score, that has limited predictive value in older persons. We aimed assessing whether the Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB) improves, beyond the STS score, assessment of hospital prognosis in older patients undergoing elective cardiac surgery.
