Elderly patients (over age 85) are increasingly treated in Intensive Care Units (ICU), despite doctors’ reluctance to accept these frail patients. There are only few studies describing the relevance of treatments for this group of patients in ICU. One of these studies defined an age of 85 or over as the essential admittance criterion. Exclusion criteriwere low autonomy before admittance or an inability to answer the phone. Epidemiological data, history, lifestyle, and autonomy (ADL score of six items) were recorded during admission to the ICU and by phone interviews six months later. Eight French ICUs included 239 patients aged over 85. The most common diagnostics were non-cardiogenic lung disease (36%), severe sepsis/septic shock (29%), and acute pulmonary oedem (28%). Twenty-three percent of patients were dependent at the time of their admission. Seventy-one percent of patients were still alive when released from ICU, and 52% were still alive after 6 months. Among the patients which were non-dependent before hospitalization, 17% became dependent. The only prognostic criterifound were the SAPS II score on admission and the place of residence before admission (nursing home or family environment had poor prognosis). Although the prognosis of these elderly patients was good after hospitalization in ICU, it should be noted that the population was carefully selected as having few comorbidities or dependence. No triage critericould be suggested.
