- •2\. Aged 70 years or over, either sex
- •3\. Identified as being at high risk of adverse outcomes using the Identification of Seniors At Risk (ISAR) score

Patients with potential exceptional reasons for non\-recruitment will be discussed with the researcher. These methods have worked successfully in a related cohort study run on the unit in Nottingham already.
