Frailty describes a state or syndrome of reduced physical, physiologic, and cognitive reserve that increases vulnerability to acute illness. To study the prevalence frailty in critically ill patients find its association with resource utilization short-term intensive care unit (ICU) outcomes.This was prospective observational study. All adult ≥50 years admitted ICU were included assessed by clinical score (CFS). Data collected on demography, coexisting illness, CFS, Acute Physiology Chronic...
Outcome prediction of critically ill patients is an integral part care in Intensive Care Unit (ICU). Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation (APACHE) scoring systems provide objective means mortality ICU. The aim this study was to compare the performance APACHE II IV system our ICU.All admitted ICU between January June 2014 who met inclusion criteria were evaluated. score calculated during first 24 h stay based on worst values.

This study was undertaken identify profile patients admitted ICU clinical features their outcomes. Methods: retrospective case series summer 2012 our multidisciplinary ICU. Data demographics,...
Assessment of musculoskeletal function in individuals with haemophilia has been attempted clinimetric instruments, which use predetermined domains for assessing the same. This study introduces application an instrument, Canadian Occupational Performance Measure (COPM), is open-ended questionnaire that allows patients to prioritize their needs and rate performance different tasks daily living as well satisfaction performing them. To utility COPM evaluating functional status assess its...
Sepsis is the leading cause of intensive care unit (ICU) admissions and associated with high mortality.To identify incidence, risk factors outcome patients severe sepsis septic shock.A prospective observational study was done in a multidisciplinary ICU over period 18 months. We included all adult admitted to features shock as per SCCM/ACCP guidelines. Data related demography, co-existing illnesses, parameters assess Acute Physiology Chronic Health Evaluation (APACHE) II Sequential Organ...

Methods: A 6-year retrospective adult ICU analysed for demographics, mode hanging, lead time emergency room (ER) admission, presentation, Acute Physiology Chronic Health Evaluation...
Critically ill patients are under stress, leading to a catabolic response and higher energy expenditure. The associated malnutrition leads adverse outcomes.This study aims assess the nutritional adequacy (>80% of prescribed calories) in mechanically ventilated (MV) its effects on patients' outcomes. It also identify causes deviation from nutrition prescription.This is prospective observational involving all adult critically requiring MV for >48 hours. Patients were enteral (EN) targeted...
