Background. In older adults, there is often substantial undiagnosed chronic disease detectable on noninvasive testing, not accounted for by most comorbidity indices. We developed a simple physiologic index of comorbidity by scoring five noninvasive tests across the full range of values. We examined the predictive validity of this index for mortality and disability
