Core Tip |
This is a retrospective study to assess the outcomes of older adults (≥ 60 years of age) hospitalised with acute severe ulcerative colitis (ASUC) as per Truelove and Witts’ criteria. We identified 45 episodes of ASUC in older adults and compared outcomes with 181 episodes of ASUC in patients < 60 years of age. Older adults with ASUC have similar steroid non-response rate, response to medical rescue therapy and colectomy rates up to 12 mo from index admission, when compared to patients less than 60 years of age. |
