Impact of age, physiological status and APACHE score on acceptance of patients to the ICU
Critical Care2015Vol. 19(S1)
Abstract
Evidence suggests that age, chronic health status and acute illness severity affect the decision-making of clinicians regarding admission to the ICU (ITU) [1-3]. This prospective service review assesses the impact of age, APACHE II score and WHO functional score towards admission acceptance or refusal to ITU in a tertiary-level facility.
