Global age-sex-specific mortality, life expectancy, and population estimates in...
Schumacher, AE; Kyu, HH; Aali, A; Abbafati, C; Abbas, J; Abbasgholizadeh, R; Abbasi, MA; Abbasian, M; Abd ElHafeez, S; Abdelmasseh, M; Abd Elsalam, SBackground: Estimates of demographic metrics are crucial to assess levels and trends of population health outcomes. The profound impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on populations worldwide has underscored the need for timely estimates to understand this unprecedented event within the context of long-term population health trends. The Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries, and Risk Factors Study (GBD) 2021 provides n...
Association of Chronic Heart Failure with Mortality in Old Intensive Care Patie...
Romano Bruno, R; Wernly, B; Wolff, G; Fjølner, J; Artigas, A; Bollen Pinto, B; Schefold, J; Kindgen‐Milles, D; Baldia, P; Kelm, M; Beil, M; Sviri, SAims: Chronic heart failure (CHF) is a major risk factor for mortality in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). This prospective international multicentre study investigates the role of pre-existing CHF on clinical outcomes of critically ill old (≥70 years) intensive care patients with COVID-19. Methods and results: Patients with pre-existing CHF were subclassified as having ischaemic or non-ischaemic cardiac di...
The Impact of Frailty on Survival in Elderly Intensive Care Patients with COVID...
Jung, C; Flaatten, H; Fjolner, J; Bruno, R; Wernly, B; Artigas, A; Pinto, B; Schefold, J; Wolff, G; Kelm, M; Beil, M; Sviri, S; Heerden, P; Szczeklil, WBackground: The COVID-19 pandemic has led highly developed healthcare systems to the brink of collapse due to the large numbers of patients being admitted into hospitals. One of the potential prognostic indicators in patients with COVID-19 is frailty. The degree of frailty could be used to assist both the triage into intensive care, and decisions regarding treatment limitations. Our study sought to determine th...
The Contribution of Frailty, Cognition, Activity of Daily Life and Comorbiditie...
Guidet, B; de Lange, DW; Boumendil, A; Leaver, S; Watson, X; Boulanger, C; Szczeklik, W; Artigas, A; Morandi, A; Andersen, F; Zafeiridis, T; Jung, CPurpose: Premorbid conditions affect prognosis of acutely-ill aged patients. Several lines of evidence suggest geriatric syndromes need to be assessed but little is known on their relative effect on the 30-day survival after ICU admission. The primary aim of this study was to describe the prevalence of frailty, cognition decline and activity of daily life in addition to the presence of comorbidity and polypharm...
Sex-Specific Outcome Disparities in Very Old Patients Admitted to Intensive Car...
Wernly, B; Romano Bruno, R; Kelm, M; Boumendil, A; Morandi, A; Andersen, F; Artigas, A; Finazzi, S; Cecconi, M; Christensen, S; Faraldi, LFemale and male very elderly intensive patients (VIPs) might differ in characteristics and outcomes. We aimed to compare female versus male VIPs in a large, multinational collective of VIPs with regards to outcome and predictors of mortality. In total, 7555 patients were included in this analysis, 3973 (53%) male and 3582 (47%) female patients. The primary endpoint was 30-day-mortality. Baseline characteristics...
