Abstract Aim To characterize elderly medical patients and identify factors associated with prolonged length of stay. Methods The present prospective observational study evaluated consecutive patients aged ≥65 years admitted in acute geriatric and medical wards. A comprehensive assessment including demographic, clinical, functional and cognitive variables was carried out. Delayed discharge was defined when patients were discharged later than the date they were deemed medically ready for discharge by physicians. The analysis was initially carried out on the total sample and subsequently according to whether hospital admission had been from home, or from intermediate or long‐term facilities. Results Among 1568 patients (age 81.3 ± 7.3 years, 712 men), we observed a high prevalence of functional dependence, cognitive impairment, chronic immobilization and frailty (50%, 25%, 20% and 40%, respectively). Overall, delayed discharge occurred in 442 cases – resulting in 2637 days of prolonged hospital stay – and was independently associated with impairment in activities of daily living, frailty, high comorbidity and inappropriate admission. Among patients admitted from home (roughly 90% of the sample), delayed discharge occurred in 392 patients, and was independently associated with cognitive impairment, functional dependence, low severity of comorbidity and inappropriate admission (OR 3.39). Among patients admitted from intermediate or long‐term facilities, lower cognitive impairment and greater severity of functional dependence were independently associated with prolonged stay. Conclusions Poor health conditions and high prevalence of geriatric syndromes are extremely common among older medical inpatients. Delayed discharge was mainly observed in patients admitted from home, and associated with cognitive impairment (OR 1.12) and functional dependence (OR 1.49). Geriatr Gerontol Int 2015; 16: 314–321.
