About this trial
This study aims to evaluate the prognostic value of the C-reactive protein-albumin-lymphocyte (CALLY) index, Clinical Frailty Scale (CFS), and SOFA-2 score in predicting mortality among geriatric intensive care unit (ICU) patients.
The primary outcome is ICU mortality. Secondary outcomes include 28-day mortality, ICU length of stay, duration of mechanical ventilation, need for renal replacement therapy, and vasopressor requirement.
The study also investigates whether the combined use of these parameters improves predictive performance compared to conventional scoring systems such as APACHE II.
