The benefit of an intensive intervention in LS for 2 years to reduce CVRF persists at 5 years, but decreases its intensity over time. It is recommended to repeat the interventions periodically to maintain the beneficial effect on LS.

Up to 19% of women will undergo pelvic organ prolapse (POP) surgery. Frailty, an important perioperative factor, has been previously studied in this population. However, the socioeconomic factors that are associated frailty and postoperative complications are unknown. We sought to determine the association between socioeconomic factors, frailty, and postoperative complications among patients who underwent POP repair surgery.METHODS: This is a retrospective cohort study of the 2016-2017 National Inpatient Sample from the Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project. We analyzed relationships between frailty, as determined by the Hospital Frailty Risk Score (HFRS), a predictive tool based on ICD-10 codes, socioeconomic factors, and postoperative complications in women undergoing apical POP repair. Frailty was defined as HFRS >5. Multiple logistic regression models were used for statistical analysis.RESULTS: We identified 9,028 women who underwent POP repair, of which 12.7% were frail, and 12.2% had complications. Regression analysis revealed protective factors against frailty were Black (0.
