Brief Summary: This is a single-centre prospective diagnostic study When a patient is admitted to the inclusion centre the clinician responsible for the patient checks the inclusion and exclusion criteria The no objection from the patient or their trusted support person or failing that a close if the patient is unable to give consent is soughtThe CFS scale is completed and recorded by the clinician in the observation observation notebookThe clinician performs a quadricipital muscle ultrasound specifically for research purposes with no changes to the therapeutic and its results are recorded in the observation notebook

observation notebookAt 3 months after inclusion information was collected from the medical records to identify secondary endpoints

Detailed Description: Fragility is defined as a decline in physical and mental capacities leading to increased vulnerability to pathologies It is now accepted that frail patients have a higher morbidity and mortality rate than non-frail patients In intensive care the prevalence of frail patients reaches 30 of patients admitted These patients have a higher rate of complications and mortality than non-fragile patientsIdentifying frail patients is therefore a major challenge in the ICU to enable the risk of short-term mortality to be stratification of the risk of mortality in the short medium and long term and to predict the risk of complicationsThere are a large number of tools for diagnosing frailty but not all of them can be used or validated in the ICU intensive care unit The need for a tool that is robust reliable reproducible and quick to use means that the CFS Clinical Frailty Scale a good tool for screening for frailty particularly in intensive care It predicts mortality in intensive care and in hospital regardless of age However it requires the cooperation of the patient or the patients family and relies on a subjective approach to the patients state of health by the clinician This is why in recent years new objective tools for diagnosing frailty have been developed based in particular on anthropometric measurements The scanographic cross-sectional area of the psoas muscle appears to correlate well with fragility scales in the literature and is an independent risk factor for mortality

Ultrasound depth of the quadriceps muscle is an easy rapid and objective measure of the patients muscle reserves In the preoperative situation this measurement correlates with fragility scales and is a risk factor for postoperative morbidity

We propose to evaluate the diagnostic performance of bilateral ultrasound depth of the quadriceps femoris in comparison with the CFS scale to differentiate frail and non-frail patients in the intensive care unit

Knowing whether the patient is fragile or not quickly and objectively can help the doctor among other things to define a reasonable level of therapeutic commitment for the patient and his or her pathology

to define a reasonable level of therapeutic commitment for the patient and his or her pathology
