Ared the frail population to the non-frail population. Results: Two hundred and eighty four patients were admitted to Intensive Care in this time period. Of those, 102 were over the age of 65 years. Of the 102 patients, 68patients were deemed to be frail, and 34 were deemed to be non-frail using the CFS. Approximately 40 of the patients admitted to Intensive Care are over the age of 65. There wa

The length of stay of the frail patient is shorter and this may be because as intensivists we are better at treatment limitation in this group of patients. No difference in overall mortality suggests that the p
