Abstract

ObjectiveTo explore the association of patient or family reported functional deterioration (defined by a single question) in the preceding year, with mortality outcome for those admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU).DesignRetrospective observational analysis of a routinely collected data source.ParticipantsPatients that were admitted to the ICU at Northwick Park and St Marks Hospitals, London North West University Healthcare NHS Trust between 01 October 2017 to 15 June 2019 were included. Patients were excluded if they had a prior ICU admission during the existing hospital episode or if information on functional deterioration could not be retrieved from either the patient or their advocate.Primary outcomesMortality at the point of hospital discharge and 1 year following admission to the ICU.ResultsOf the 1006 patients who were admitted to the ICU during the study period, information on functional deterioration was available for 621 patients who were included in the analysis. From these, 251 (40.4%) patients had patient or family reported functional deterioration in the preceding year, while 370 (59.6%) patients had a perceived stable functional baseline. Comparing the two groups, mortality was significantly higher in those who had functionally deteriorated compared with those with stable baseline function, at the point of hospital discharge (45.4% vs 25.9%; p<0.0001) and at 1 year (59.4% vs 33.0%; p<0.0001).ConclusionPatient or family reported functional deterioration was significantly associated with higher mortality at the point of hospital discharge and at 1 year. The concept of functional deterioration in the lead up to ICU admission warrants further exploration.
