Predicting survival in geriatric trauma patients: A comparison between the TRISS methodology and the Geriatric Trauma Outcome Score.

Introduction: We compared the Geriatric Trauma Outcome Score (GTOS) with the probability of survival using the TRISS methodology (PS-TRISS) in geriatric severe trauma patients admitted to Intensive Care Units (ICU) participating in the Spanish trauma ICU registry (RETRAUCI).

Methods: Retrospective analysis from the RETRAUCI. Quantitative data were reported as median (Interquartile Range (IQR)), and categorical data as number (percentage).

Outcome prediction in terms of functional disability and mortality at 1 year among ICU-admitted severe stroke patients: a prospective epidemiological study in the south of the European Union (Evascan Project, Andalusia, Spain).

Objectives: To analyse 1-year mortality and functional disability outcomes and resource use in critical stroke patients admitted to ICU.

Design And Setting: Multi-centre, prospective, observational study in 28 Spanish hospitals. PATIENTS.
