Description
Summary:•Little literature assesses mFI-5 as a predictor for outcomes in ASD patients.•An mFI-5 score of 1 or 2 was associated with 30-day reoperations.•An mFI-5 score of 1 or 2 was associated with 30-day related and any readmissions.•This supports mFI-5 as a possible predictor for adverse postoperative outcomes. There is limited research regarding the association between the mFI-5 and postoperative complications among adult spinal deformity (ASD) patients.
