Summary

This is an observational prospective pilot-study that investigates which patient-related variables that predict a decision to limit life sustaining treatments. Some of the variables we were interested in cannot be accessed in registry data, such as frailty scale score and living at home or not. Furthermore we wanted to investigate if the variables that were independently associated with a decision to limit LST were different for critically ill patients with COVID-19 than for critically ill patients with other diagnoses in a Swedish intensive care unit during the pandemic.
