The German Society for Geriatrics recommends the "ISAR" questionnaire as a screening tool for patients ≥70 for geriatric screening in emergency rooms. Although the ISAR-score is collected routinely in the "AltersTraumaRegister DGU ® " (ATR-DGU), to date less is known about the predictive value of the "ISAR"-score in geriatric trauma patients.
