Abstract

  • Frailty is independently associated with significantly higher 1-year mortality and MACCE following MTEER.

  • Frail patients also demonstrated increased risks of HF exacerbation, major bleeding, and readmission.

  • Incorporating frailty assessment into pre-procedural evaluation may improve risk stratification and guide personalized management strategies.
