Summary

This study looks at whether a tool called the NECPAL scale can help identify older adults (75+) in the intensive care unit (ICU) who are more likely to die within 90 days. Researchers will follow 199 patients to see if the scale's predictions match real outcomes. The goal is to improve end-of-life care planning for high-risk patients.
