The number of patients aged over 75 continues to grow, and, according to INSEE, will represent almost 10% of the French population in 2021, an increase of 2.4 points since 2000. This demographic change is also observed in the intensive care units, where admitted patients aged over 80 represent now up to 10-20% of critical care admissions, depending on the facility. The admission of these patients remains controversial, with questions about the benefit to elderly patients, both in terms of in-hospital and distant survival, as well as induced morbidity or subsequent quality of life: functional status is impaired in up to two-thirds of survivors. The challenge of identifying the patients most able to withstand a stay is a major one.
