Sublingual microcirculatory assessment on admission independently predicts the outcome of old intensive care patients suffering from shock.

Similarly, the percentage of perfused small vessels was markedly higher in the preserved microcirculation group (89.1 ± 5.5%) compared to the impaired microcirculation group (71.4 ± 15.9%), with a highly significant difference ( p < 0.001).

However, the difference did not reach statistical significance ( p = 0.084).
