Official title
Development of a Predictive Model for Mortality in Patients Aged 75 or Older With Critical Illness
Overview
The present study aims to develop a predictive model to identify elderly patients with the highest likelihood of mortality upon admission to an intensive care unit.
Interventions
- Other laboratory biomarker analysis
Results of laboratory biomarker analysis will be analyzed as predictors for mortality
Primary outcome measures
- mortality [Time frame: Day 90]
Eligibility criteria
Inclusion criteria
- Men and women aged 75 or older.
- Admission to an ICU from the Emergency Department.
- Availability of or possibility to contact a participant's informant.

Participants meeting any of the following exclusion criteria will not be included in the study:
- Patients transferred to the Emergency Department from a hospital ward.
- Patients who die within the first 24 hours of ICU admission.
- Patients admitted to Step-Down Units.
- Patients requiring ICU admission for any of the following reasons:
Orotracheal intubation or advanced cardiopulmonary resuscitation performed prior to arrival at the Emergency Department.
AV block awaiting pacemaker implantation. Activation of the STEMI or Stroke care pathway. Post-cardiac catheterization for acute coronary syndrome.
- Participation in another clinical study involving an intervention, procedure, or visit schedule that is incompatible with the present study.
