It was recommended by the Baden-Wuerttemberg Hospitals Association for routine use in hospitals in 2014 although no published validation studies are available. The test takes 3-5 min.Validation of the Geriatrie-Check in a prospective cohort of hospitalized neurological patients with and without geriatric characteristics.In this prospective cross-sectional observational study at the University Hospital Tübingen, Germany the Geriatrie-Check was compared with a comprehensive geriatric assessment in 107 neurological inpatients aged 70 years and older $(41\%$ women, mean age 76.7 years).The Geriatrie-Check classified 61 patients $(57\%)$ as geriatric patients. These patients with a positive result in the Geriatrie-Check had a higher percentage of frailty (according to Fried et al.), higher values in the Gérontopôle frailty screening tool, higher values in the geriatric screening according to Lachs et el., slower gait speed, lower grip force, needed longer for the timed up-and-go test, had a greater fear of falling in the Falls Efficacy Scale - International, lower scores in the Mini Mental State Examination, needed more time to perform the Trail Making Test A and B, had higher values in the Beck's Depressions Inventar II and lower values in the visual analogue scale of the EQ-5D. A higher percentage of patients took more than five different drugs.The Geriatrie-Check has been shown to be a useful and valid tool for the identification of geriatric inpatients in neurological wards due to the good agreement with the results of the geriatric assessment.}, keywords = {Accidental Falls: prevention $\&$ control / Aged / Cross-Sectional Studies / Female / Geriatric Assessment / Germany / Humans / Male / Prospective Studies}, cin = {Ext UKT / AG Gasser / AG Maetzler / Tübingen common}, ddc = {150}, cid = {I:(DE-2719)5000058 / I:(DE-2719)1210000 / I:(DE-2719)5000024 / I:(DE-2719)6000018}, pnm = {344 - Clinical and Health Care Research (POF3-344) / 345 - Population Studies and Genetics (POF3-345)}, pid = {G:(DE-HGF)POF3-344 / G:(DE-HGF)POF3-345}, typ = {PUB:(DE-HGF)16}, pubmed = {pmid:30206742}, doi = {10.1007/s00391-018-1441-5}, url = {https://pub.dzne.de/record/140594}, }
