Forty-eight new recommendations for critical care for people aged 85+ have been produced by a multi-disciplinary expert consortium. The researchers conducted a Delphi study, and the findings have been endorsed by the European Society of Intensive Care Medicine.
The group’s recommendations give us food for thought on the core principles, values, and competences of acute geriatrics care, as the themes and topics bear many similarities with the GeriEM recommendations from our own European Taskforce.
