Evaluation of the application of G8 scale in elderly non-cancer patients undergoing oral and maxillofacial surgery
Objective To evaluate the performance of the geriatric-8(G8)scale in screening for elderly frailty risk and predicting prognosis in elderly non-cancer patients undergoing oral and maxillofacial surgery.Methods A total of 100 elderly non cancer patients who visited the Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery,Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital from August 2021 to August 2023 were selected for the study.Comprehensive geriatric assessment(CGA)and G8 evaluations were conducted,and Spearman correlation coefficient(r)and kappa analysis were used to evaluate the correlation and consistency between the two evaluation results.58 elderly patients were evaluated and grouped using the G8 scale to test the differences in postoperative observation indicators between the two groups.Results There was a strong consistency between CGA and G8 evaluation results(kappa=0.768,P=0.005),and there was a strong consistency between the evaluators(kappa=0.798,P=0.008).There was a strong correlation among the evaluators(r=0.772,P=0.003).The G8 assessment showed a higher risk of poor prognosis in the abnormal group compared to the normal group.Conclusion The G8 scale is an effective and reliable screening tool for elderly non-cancer patients in oral and maxillofacial surgery,which can identify frailty symptoms in this population and predict the risk of poor prognosis.
