On six month follow up, mortality was 10% and all the patients who died were diagnosed with malignancy. One patient required readmission following discharge in the follow up period. Conclusions:Care planning of AD patients require management of chronic and acute medical comorbidities and AD patients who require hospital admission have high short-term mortality rate.
