The main objective of the research is to evaluate the prognostic performance of qSOFA, NEWS and MEDS scores in patients over 65 years of age presenting to the emergency department with a diagnosis of infection made by the emergency physician in charge.

The main judgment criterion is intra-hospital mortality. Secondary criteria for judgement are admission to intensive care or intensive care (continuous monitoring unit), length of hospital stay, length of stay in the emergency room, length of time before antibiotic therapy is administered. A comparison of score performance will be carried out between the population aged over 65 years old and the rest of the population.
