Abstract

Objectives: To verify the importance of Functional Independence Measure (FIM) on clinical outcomes in mechanically ventilated elderly and analyze risk factors associated with mortality. Methods: A prospective cohort of patients receiving IMV, divided into two groups: non survivor group - Hospital death and survivor Group - discharge. Results: FIM before admission to the ICU was on average for the non-survivor group 94.8 and for the surviving group 113.4 points (p=0.0062) and was associated with increased risk of death (p<0.0001, RR=2.37, 95% CI=1.43-3.93). In the 27 patients evaluated after 6 months there was recovery of the FIM at approximate values (103.0 points) when compared to the moment before ICU admission (113.4). Conclusions: The reduction in FIM was associated with an increased risk of death. Mortality observed at admission was high at 59.0%. FIM suffered a significant reduction after admission to the ICU and 6 months after discharge from the ICU recovered to similar values when compared to before hospitalization.
