Table 1 Stratification approach
| Frailty status (CFS) | Recommended HbA1c target | Clinical priority |
| Robust (CFS 1-3) | 7.0%-7.5% | Optimize glycemic control |
| Mild/moderate (CFS 4-6) | 7.5%-8.0% | Balance control and safety |
| Severe (CFS ≥ 7) | 8.0%-9.0% | Prioritize hypoglycemia avoidance; deprescribing |
