简要总结
Elderly OR senior citizens have been defined in the National policy for older persons as people with age more than 60 years. In India’ forecasts predict the percentage of population older than 60 years will increase from 8% in 2015 to 19% in 2050. In the past decade, there is an increase in admissions of elderly individuals into intensive care units (ICU).
As per literature, elderly patients makeup betweeen 26% and 51% of Icu admissions. Studies have reported the mortality rates in elderly ICU patients varying from 3% to 64%, depending upon the type of patients studied.
The commonly associated factors with increased mortality among elderly patients can be broadly classified into severity of illness, comorbidities and fraility. These factors in icu can be measured using tools such as APACHE II, SOFA score for severity of illness, Charlson and Elixhause comorbidity indices for comorbidities, Clinical Fraility Scale and mFI-11 for fraility in older people.
However, these parameters have not been compared in a single study. Hence, we aimed to compare the various scores and evaluate their efficacy in predicting outcomes of critically ill elderly patients admitted in MICUs
