Abstract:
Over the last 30 years intensive care medicine has undergone drastic changes not only because of changes in patient population but also because of the progress in medical technology. Given that resources are finite and limited medical and socio-ethical principles should be applied for the distribution and withdrawal of these resources. Scoring systems can not only assist in this decision making process but also provide criteria for the termination of treatment in intensive care. Whilst in intensive care patients should be scored every day to identify as early as possible those patients who are going to die and those who are going to survive in order to use intensive care resources efficiently. After discharge from intensive care quality of life should be an important factor to assess intensive care performance.
