Brief summary
This retrospective, observational cohort study will include nonagenarians admitted to the ICU between 2010 and 2023 across Australia and New Zealand. The study will utilise data from the Australian and New Zealand Intensive Care Society (ANZICS) Adult Patient Database. Who is it for? You are eligible if you are greater than 90 years old and admitted to ICI. Patients will be categorized into two groups: full treatment and treatment limitations. Study details This study will evaluate the short-term effects of treatment goals on ICU and hospital mortality, length of stay, and mortality-associated factors. We hope these findings will emphasise the importance of shared decision-making that respects patient autonomy and considers clinical, cultural, and systemic factors.
