What is the median clinical frailty score? Understanding the CFS

According to a 2023 study on geriatric rehabilitation patients, the median Clinical Frailty Scale (CFS) score was 6, indicating a moderately frail population. However, the median clinical frailty score is not a single, universal number, as it varies significantly depending on the specific patient population being studied. A median score is a statistical measure representing the middle value of a data set, and its value for the Clinical Frailty Scale (CFS) depends on the cohort's health status and setting.
