Data on demographics, comorbidities, medication, and outcomes were collected. Frailty was assessed via the Canadian Study of Health and Aging Clinical Frailty Scale (CSHA-CFS). Multivariable Poisson regression was used to assess risk factors for GH-related admissions. Secondary endpoints included changes in discharge status and survival, analyzed using Kaplan-Meier and restricted mean survival time (RMST).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Among 317 patients (median age 92 yrs [IQR 91\u201394], 63.7% male), 134 (42.3%) were admitted for hematuria.

One-year mortality was higher among hematuria patients (34.3% vs. 24.5%), with lower RMST (12 vs. 15 months). In-hospital mortality during the index admission was low across both groups.
