However, there is currently a lack of evidence on the relationship between frailty and readmission rates among patients with CIED. This study investigated whether preoperative frailty influenced readmission rates among patients with CIED over a one-year period following implantation. The study retrospectively analyzed 101 patients who underwent CIED implantations. To compare frailty-based differences in their characteristics and readmission rates, these participants were categorized into frailty and non-frailty groups via the modified frailty index (mFI). The frailty group had a significantly higher readmission rate than the non-frailty group (non-frailty group vs. frailty group = 1 vs. 8 patients: <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> &lt; 0.05). Further, a multivariate analysis showed that frailty was a significant readmission factor. Based on individual analyses with\/without histories of HF, the readmission rate also tended to be higher among individuals considered frail via the mFI (readmission rate in HF patients: non-frailty group vs. frailty group = 1 vs. 5 patients: <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> = 0.65; non-HF patients: non-frailty group vs. frailty group = 0 vs. 3 patients: <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> = 0.01). Participants with preoperative frailty showed higher readmission rates within a one-year period following implantation compared to those without preoperative frailty. This tendency was consistent regardless of HF history. The mFI may thus help predict readmission among patients with CIED.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1371\/journal.pone.0277115","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,11,3]],"date-time":"2022-11-03T17:43:18Z","timestamp":1667497398000},"page":"e0277115","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1371\/journal.pone.corrections_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["The impacts of preoperative frailty on readmission after cardiac implantable electrical device implantation"],"prefix":"10.1371","volume":"17","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6424-1469","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Tomonori","family":"Takeda","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Atsuhiro","family":"Tsubaki","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yoshifumi","family":"Ikeda","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ritsushi","family":"Kato","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Kazuki","family":"Hotta","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Tatsuro","family":"Inoue","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Sho","family":"Kojima","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Risa","family":"Kanai","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yoshitaka","family":"Terazaki","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ryusei","family":"Uchida","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Shigeru","family":"Makita","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"340","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,11,3]]},"reference":[{"key":"pone.0277115.ref001","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"255","DOI":"10.1111\/pace.12320","article-title":"Alternative techniques for left ventricular pacing in cardiac resynchronization therapy","volume":"37","author":"A Mihalcz","year":"2014","journal-title":"Pacing Clin Electrophysiol"},{"key":"pone.0277115.ref002","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1532","DOI":"10.1111\/pace.14336","article-title":"Is His-optimized superior to conventional cardiac resynchronization therapy in improving heart failure?
