The Clinical Frailty Scale for mortality prediction of old acutely admitted intensive care patients: a meta-analysis of individual patient-level data

Raphael Romano Bruno et al.

Summary: This large-scale analysis summarized individual data on the Clinical Frailty Scale (CFS) to predict outcomes in the intensive care unit (ICU). The study found that frailty was independently associated with ICU mortality in older patients. New frailty categories might better reflect its continuum and predict ICU outcomes more accurately.

Contribution of information about acute and geriatric characteristics to decisions about life-sustaining treatment for old patients in intensive care

Michael Beil et al.

Summary: This study used the framework of information theory to evaluate the uncertainty in decision-making about life-sustaining treatment (LST) in the intensive care unit (ICU). The results showed that information about the severity of the acute illness was the most important, while age, gender, and geriatric characteristics contributed to a lesser degree. This suggests that there is still a gap in fully understanding decision-making about LST and further research is needed.

Frailty as a Priority-Setting Criterion for Potentially Lifesaving Treatment-Self-Fulfilling Prophecy, Circularity, and Indirect Discrimination?

Soren Holm et al.

Summary: This paper discusses the ethical implications of using frailty scoring as a criterion for allocating healthcare resources, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic. It raises concerns about how frailty ascription can become a self-fulfilling prophecy, the problematic use of frailty in COVID-19 triage, the circular link between age and frailty, the potential for indirect discrimination, and the ethical issues of repurposing existing scoring systems. The lack of research on the use of global frailty scores as access criteria for acute treatment is also highlighted.

The impact of age-related syndromes on ICU process and outcomes in very old patients

Helene Vallet et al.

Summary: In this narrative review, the authors describe the most important age-related syndromes in old ICU patients and highlight the importance of considering the older patient as a whole when making decisions about intensive care treatment. They emphasize the role of geriatric assessment in long-term outcome and the impact of geriatric conditions on short-term and long-term prognosis.

A Bayesian reanalysis of the Standard versus Accelerated Initiation of Renal-Replacement Therapy in Acute Kidney Injury (STARRT-AKI) trial

Fernando G. Zampieri et al.

Summary: The reanalysis using Bayesian framework of the STARRT-AKI trial found that an accelerated strategy of kidney-replacement therapy initiation did not offer clinically important benefits compared to a standard strategy. Patients receiving the accelerated strategy may have fewer days alive and free from kidney-replacement therapy.

Using Bayesian Methods to Augment the Interpretation of Critical Care Trials An Overview of Theory and Example Reanalysis of the Alveolar Recruitment for Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome Trial

Fernando G. Zampieri et al.

Summary: Most randomized trials are traditionally analyzed using frequentist statistical approaches like null hypothesis testing and P values. However, the concept of P values can be difficult to understand and may lead to misinterpretation. Bayesian methods offer an alternative probabilistic interpretation of data, providing a distribution of effect sizes compatible with observed trial data based on prior assumptions. Bayesian reanalysis, although increasingly common, raises concerns about potential bias if priors are not predefined. Standardization of priors in Bayesian reanalysis of clinical trials may be beneficial for the critical care community.

Reliability of the Clinical Frailty Scale in very elderly ICU patients: a prospective European study

Hans Flaatten et al.

Summary: This study demonstrated high reliability of using the Clinical Frailty Scale (CFS) in assessing frailty in elderly ICU patients. Information from family or hospital records was more reliable than direct patient information, and assessors from the same profession performed better than those from different professions.

Relationship between the Clinical Frailty Scale and short-term mortality in patients ≥ 80 years old acutely admitted to the ICU: a prospective cohort study

Jakub Fronczek et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the impact of modelling approach on the association between the Clinical Frailty Scale (CFS) score and short-term mortality in critically ill adults. The results showed that treating the CFS score as either a categorical variable or a nonlinear continuous variable provided the highest fraction of new prognostic information in the context of 30-day mortality. The relationship between the CFS score and mortality was found to be nonlinear, highlighting the importance of maintaining the complexity of the original CFS score for accurate prognostication.

The impact of frailty on survival in elderly intensive care patients with COVID-19: the COVIP study

Christian Jung et al.

Summary: This study aimed to determine the interaction of frailty and age in elderly COVID-19 ICU patients, finding that frailty was independently associated with lower survival rates. Frail patients were more likely to have treatment limitations and less likely to receive mechanical ventilation.
