The prevalence of peripheral artery disease continues to rise, with major amputations and mortality remaining prominent. Frailty is a significant risk factor for adverse outcomes in the management of the vascular disease. The geriatric nutritional risk index has been used to predict adverse outcomes in lower extremity peripheral artery disease and is a nutrition-based surrogate for frailty. The authors recruited 126 patients with peripheral artery disease who underwent endovascular stent implantation. As in previous reports, malnutrition was diagnosed by the geriatric nutritional risk index. The authors used Kaplan-Meier and multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression analyses to analyze the risk of major adverse limb events, which included mortality, major amputation, and target limb revascularization. There were 67 major adverse limb events during a median follow-up of 480 days. Malnutrition on the basis of the geriatric nutritional risk index was present in 31% of patients. Cox regression analysis showed that malnutrition based on the geriatric nutritional risk index was an independent predictor of major adverse limb events. Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that major adverse limb events increased with worsening malnutrition. Our single-center, retrospective evaluation of geriatric nutritional risk index (as a synonym for body health) correlates with an increased risk of major adverse limb events. Future directions should focus not only on identifying these patients but also on modifying risk factors to optimize long-term outcomes.© 2023 The Authors.
