Measurements In eligible persons, information on demographic characteristics, activities daily living (modified Katz ADL score), disease-related measures was collected within 48 hours after admission. Follow-up using self-reporting questionnaires performed at 3 months 1 year. Functional decline defined as least point modified score 12 from baseline. Mortality data 5 years were municipal database. Results Logistic regression analysis, adjusted for sex, showed that participants CCI or more had higher 3-month (odds ratio (OR) 3.6, 95% confidence interval (CI) 2.1�6.4), 1-year (OR 7.1, CI 4.2�11.9), 5-year 52.4, 13.3�206.4) mortality than those 0. Participants scores between 4 also greater risk years. Conclusion independently in acutely ill elderly adults.
