Epidemiology of geriatric patients presenting to emergency departments in Europe: EGERS study
We are proud to announce the publication of the EGERS study in EJEM.
The primary aim of this European prospective study was to determine the epidemiologic characteristics of elderly patients presenting to EDs across Europe. Our secondary objective was to determine the hospitalization rate, characteristics, and in-hospital mortality rates of geriatric patients presenting to EDs.
