A national study of 23 major trauma centres to investigate the effect of a geriatrician assessment on clinical outcomes in older people admitted with serious injury in England (FiTR 2): a multicentre observational cohort study

Philip Braude et al.

Summary: This study examined the effect of geriatrician assessment on clinical outcomes for older people with serious injury, and found that geriatrician assessment was associated with a reduced risk of death. These findings support the routine provision of geriatrician assessment in trauma care.

Age and frailty are independently associated with increased COVID-19 mortality and increased care needs in survivors: results of an international multi-centre study

Mustafa Alsahab et al.

Summary: Age and frailty are independently associated with adverse outcomes in COVID-19. The risk of increased care needs was also increased in survivors of COVID-19 with frailty or older age.

Clinical Features, Inpatient Trajectories and Frailty in Older Inpatients with COVID-19: A Retrospective Observational Study

Christopher N. Osuafor et al.

Summary: This study found that older frail patients are more likely to present with atypical symptoms and have a higher risk of mortality. Older age, male gender, high illness acuity, and high frailty are independent predictors of death. During periods of community viral transmission, clinicians should prioritize COVID-19 testing and early advanced care planning for elderly and frail patients.

The role of C-reactive protein as a prognostic marker in COVID-19

Dominic Stringer et al.

Summary: The study found that a threshold of CRP >= 40 mg/L on admission is a good indicator for predicting inpatient mortality in COVID-19 patients. This threshold can assist clinicians in early assessment of patient severity, treatment decisions, and further care planning.
