Popis:	The aim of this study was to ascertain the accuracy of phase angle (PhA) as a predictor of mortality during intensive care unit (ICU) stay (MPatients aged60 y who were under mechanical ventilation (MV) ≥48 h were included once they were hemodynamically stable. PhA was measured by single-frequency bioelectrical impedance analysis up to 48 h after admission. ICU prognostic scores, functional scale, and nutritional assessments were performed in the first 24 h. Patients were followed for 60 d after ICU admission.We enrolled 102 patients into the present study. PhA was significantly higher (P0.001) in survivors at MLow PhA values are associated with higher late mortality and a short survival time at 60 d in critically ill older adults. Low PhA values can be considered a useful ICU prognostic score in similar populations.
