ABSTRACT
@#Frailty is a syndrome characterized by vulnerability to stressors due to loss of physiological reserve.

This paper reviews the concept of frailty, the relationship between frailty and cardiac surgery, the frailty assessment and intervention strategy in perioperative period, aimed at providing decision making basis for the risk stratification and perioperative management of cardiac surgery in elderly patients.
