Abstract
Objective
To adapt and validate the Simplified Chinese version of the Revised Identification of Seniors At Risk (ISAR-R) tool for identifying older patients at risk of adverse outcomes post-discharge in emergency departments.
Methods
Brislin's bidirectional translation was used for accuracy. This prospective cohort study involved 1324 patients aged 65+ in three EDs of a tertiary hospital in central China. ISAR-R was administered before discharge, and 30-day outcomes were assessed via follow-up.
Results
The tool showed good content validity (CVI=0.92). Among 1324 patients, 37.5 % were at high risk (ISAR-R ≥ 2). Logistic regression indicated that older age, wheelchair/ambulance arrival, and severe triage levels significantly increased high-risk classification. The primary endpoint occurred in 54.6 % of patients at 30 days. The ISAR-R score's AUC was 0.663.
Conclusions
The Simplified Chinese ISAR-R tool effectively identified older patients at risk of adverse outcomes in EDs, with appropriate cut-off values for different settings.
