The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of conditions requiring intensive care and the mortality incidence based on geriatric age groups followed-up in the intensive care unit. Materials and Method: Three different geriatric age groups were formed out of the 65 years old and older patients (n= 5932) included in the study as young old (65-74 years), middle old (75-84 years) and oldest old (85 years and older). In each group, disease prevalence and mortality rate by diagnostic groups were analysed. Results: The resulting diagnostic groups were found to be at different rates in different age groups (p= 0.01 p < 0.05). Malignancy was high in young elderly patients (p= 0.01 p < 0.05), while ...
