Comorbidity predicts disability only in nonfrail older patients

Higher comorbidity scores raised disability odds in nonfrail patients (OR 1.44) but not in frail patients (OR 0.98) across 1,299 hospitalized older…Higher comorbidity scores raised disability odds in nonfrail patients (OR 1.44) but not in frail patients (OR 0.98) across 1,299 hospitalized older adults.
