Association of Skeletal Muscle, Body Fat and Frailty With Prolonged Length of Hospital Stay Following Colectomy for Adenocarcinoma: A Pilot Case‐Control Study

Health Care Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Physical fitness is well‐known to be associated with health outcomes. This pilot study examined the impact of different measures of fitness on length of stay following colectomy. A case‐control study was designed to evaluate the effect of skeletal muscle mass, body fat, and frailty measures on post‐operative length of stay (LOS).
