Abstract Background: With the more advanced science in the field of medicine and disease management, the population of geriatric intensive care patients is increasing. The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted healthcare management around the globe, especially on critically-ill elderly patients. We aim to analyse the relationship between underlying illnesses, including COVID-19, and the survival rate of elderly patients who are treated in the intensive care setting.Methods: We conducted a prospective cohort study at 14 teaching hospitals for Anaesthesiology and Intensive Therapy Education in Indonesia. We selected all subjects with 60 years of age or older in the period between February to May 2021. Variables recorded included subject characteristics, comorbidities, and COVID-19 status. Subjects were followed for 30-day mortality as an outcome. We analysed the data using Kaplan-Meier survival analysis.Results: We recruited 982 elderly patients, and 728 subjects were in the final analysis (60.7% male; 68.0 ± 6.6 years old). The 30-day mortality was 38.6%. The top five comorbidities are hypertension (21.1%), diabetes (16.2%), moderate or severe renal disease (10.6%), congestive heart failure (9.2%), and cerebrovascular disease (9.1%). Subjects with Charlson's Comorbidity Index Score >5 experienced 66% death. Subjects with COVID-19 who died were 57.4%. Subjects with comorbidities and COVID-19 had lower survival rates than subjects without those conditions (p < 0.005).Conclusion: Approximately one in four elderly intensive care patients die, and the number is increasing with comorbidities and COVID-19 status.

AbstractThe detection of nucleated red blood cells (NRBCs) in blood of patients suffering from a variety of severe diseases is known to be highly associated with increased mortality. Blood analyzers to routinely measure NRBC concentrations are now available. However, the diagnostic and prognostic significance of this parameter for intensive care patients has not been evaluated. Using a Sysmex XE-2100 analyzer, NRBC concentrations were determined in blood samples from 421 patients treated in intensive care units (general and accident surgery, cardiothoracic surgery, and internal medicine) of a university hospital. NRBCs were found at least once in 19.2% of all patients. The mortality of NRBC-positive patients (n = 81) was 42.0% (n = 34); this was significantly higher (p < 0.001) than the mortality of NRBC-negative patients (5.9%, n = 340). The NRBC concentration was 115 ± 4 × 10
