The benefits of admitting elderly patients to intensive care units (ICU) are uncertain, especially when viewed in the context of the higher prevalence of chronic diseases and frailty in this population. Bertrand Guidet (Intensive Care Unit, Saint-Antoine Hospital, Paris, France) and co-investigators showed that a programme promoting increased systematic ICU admission for patients aged 75 years or older did not reduce mortality in this population.

有系统的ICU入院计划的老年患者的死亡率

将老年患者送入重症监护病房（ICU）的收益尚不确定，尤其是在该人群中慢性病和脆弱人群患病率较高的情况下。Bertrand Guidet（法国巴黎圣安托万医院重症监护室）和共同研究者表明，一项促进增加75岁或75岁以上患者的系统ICU入院率的计划并没有降低该人群的死亡率。
