Prevalence Study : Elderly Patients and Rehabilitation in ICU. Impact of Frailty.

Study design. The study FRAGIREA is a multicentric prevalence study on the frequency of frailty among elderly patients and the quality of management. The voluntary ICUs will have to include all patients ≥ 70 years on a limited period (1 month) or until the number of 15 inclusions is reached. The frailty is going to be evaluated by a frailty score adapted to the ICU, based on informations given by the patient's family. It is a descriptive non-interventional study, aiming at the description of frequency of frailty and management of the patient in order to set-up a prospective future study on the potential role of early rehabilitation of ageing patients in ICUs.
