What can the Clinical Frailty Scale tell us about planning for death? By Dr Robin Blythe and Prof. Adrian Barnett. Blog post for palliAGED and CareSearch, the Palliative Care network.

Contributed a blog to CareSearch/palliAGED on our external validation of the #clinicalfrailtyscale. The CFS is very widely used but we showed limited prognostic value. Better to think of it as a cue for discussing ageing and death with older pts than as a marker to assign treatment
