Summary
This study evaluated the association between baseline frailty (mFI-11) and acute illness severity (SAPS 3) with real hospital costs in adult patients admitted to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU). The objective was to determine if frailty and severity are independent predictors of resource consumption.
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
* Patients aged 18 years or older.
* Admission to the ICU between January 1, 2024, and May 31, 2025.
* Complete medical records allowing for the calculation of mFI-11, SAPS 3, and Charlson Index.
* Availability of institutional records regarding actual hospital costs.Exclusion Criteria:
* Incomplete records for primary exposure or outcome variables.
* Patients transferred from other institutions without sufficient baseline data.
* Severe inconsistencies in cost records.
* Subsequent readmissions where costs cannot be independently attributed to the index episode.
