“Risk adjusted analysis showed that age ≥80 years was associated with higher reintervention/amputation/death (hazard ratio [HR], 1.22; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.1-1.35), amputation/death (HR, 1.85; 95% CI, 1.61-2.13), and mortality (HR, 1.92; 95% CI, 1.66-2.23)”

  1. Age ≥80 years were not clearly linked with reintervention, amputation, or death in humans after infrainguinal bypass for intermittent claudication (HR 1.1, 95% CI 0.85-1.44).

Independent ambulation

1 study

  1. Age ≥80 years are linked with worse independent ambulation in humans (at 1-year post-PVI) (80% vs 91.5%).

    “At 1-year post-intervention, the age ≥80 years cohort had fewer independently ambulatory patients (80% vs 91.5%; P < .001).”

Central nervous system complications

1 study

  1. Age ≥80 years were not clearly linked with central nervous system complications in humans (acute type A aortic dissection) (adjusted HR 1.58, 95% CI 0.93-2.69, P = .091).

    “In multivariate analysis, age ≥80 years was associated with mortality within 30 days postoperatively (adjusted HR, 2.37; 95% CI, 1.23-4.57; P = .01) but not with CNS complications”

Recovery after stroke clot removal was possible at 80 and older

At 90 days, 14.7% of patients aged 80 and older met a disability-adjusted recovery measure, compared with 18.9% of younger patients.At 90 days, 14.7% of patients aged 80 and older met a disability-adjusted recovery measure, compared with 18.9% of younger patients.
