Commentary on: Perrella A, Geen, O, Ahuja, M, et al. Exploring the Impact of Age, Frailty, and Multimorbidity on the Effect of ICU Interventions: A Systematic Review of Randomized Controlled Trials. Critical Care Med. 2024 September. doi: 10.1097/CCM.0000000000006315

Implications for practice and research

  • More information on how age, frailty, and multimorbidity affect responses to interventions in critically ill older adults would be important and beneficial for shared decision-making.

  • Future studies should focus more on these understudied populations of older patients with frailty or multimorbidity and examine how they respond to intensive care unit interventions.

  • Context

    Recent data show that there has been an increase in the older populations admitted to intensive care unit (ICU).1 Critically ill older adults are a unique population due to age-related physiological changes, and their responses to ICU interventions may be different from younger populations.2...
