About this trial
The aim of the study is to demonstrate that "frail" patients, defined as having a CFS score greater than or equal to 5, and "severely" frail patients, defined as having a CFS score between \[6-7\] as defined by Bagshaw et al (14), constitute an independent risk factor (RF) for mortality.
In the same way, as an exploratory study, we will try to find out whether clinical frailty constitutes a risk factor for extending the length of hospital stay, the risk of short/medium-term readmission, as has already been demonstrated for patients admitted to intensive care from all causes (15), or for impaired quality of life.
The objective is to have a better understanding of the implications and outcomes associated with pre-hospital frailty in young critically ill patients.
This analysis will also help to clarify prognoses and contribute to better decision-making on the intensity and proportionality of care, as well as providing better information and helping to manage the expectations of patients and their families in terms of survival prognosis and subsequent quality of life.
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
Patients aged ≥18 years and ≤ 65 years

Patient admitted for suspected or documented type 3 sepsis
Presence of vasopressor amines to maintain MAP > 65mmHg despite filling
Disqualifiers
Patient moribund on admission
Patients with severe pre-existing dementia and/or cognitive decline, suffering from severe neurodegenerative diseases that prevent the patient from living independently at baseline, including mental illness requiring institutionalisation, including acquired or congenital mental retardation, etc.

Trial population
All patients admitted to intensive care will be studied for this study. Patients meeting the inclusion criteria and with no non-inclusion criteria will be included in the study after obtaining the patient's or relative's, if applicable, non-objection.

Trial groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
To show that the frailty score on admission is a risk factor for mortality at D28, independent of known risk factors, in young patients admitted to intensive care (ICU) for sepsis or septic shock.
The odds ratio of frail patients to non-frail patients for the risk of all-cause death at D28
Secondary outcomes
To study the association, independently of known risk factors, between the frailty score on admission and mortality at day 90.
Time from admission to death or last news, censored at D90
To study the association, independently of known risk factors, between the frailty score on admission and length of hospital stay
The time between admission to IS and live discharge from hospital, death is considered a concurrent risk, the data are censored at 90 days
To study the association, independently of known risk factors, between the frailty score on admission and the number of days with recourse to invasive therapies
Number of days with mechanical ventilation, with amines, with recourse to extra-renal purification (EER) during the IS stay.
To study the association, independently of known risk factors, between the frailty score on admission and readmission to critical care or hospitalisation before D90, among patients discharged alive from ICU before D90.
Readmission to critical care or hospitalisation before D90, among patients discharged alive from ICU before D90.
