BACKGROUND AND AIM: Acidosis is able to induce negative changes of different organs that increase progressively with aging. At present it is not known whether the levels of lactate may differently influence the prognosis of younger and older patients. Thus, the aim of this study is to evaluate the prognostic value of lactate levels after admission of younger and older patients to an acute intensive care unit. METHODS: Younger (<65 years, n = 118) and older (≥65 years, n = 165) patients admitted to an acute intensive care unit were prospectively enrolled and classified according to diagnosis of acute heart or/and respiratory failure. For each patient, APACHE II score, time of hospitalization and mortality, blood levels of lactate were col...
