Due to the active intervention provided in the ED, blinding of patients or personnel was not possible. However, the study physicians did not actively inform the ED personnel providing care for control patients about the patients’ enrolment in the trial. Geriatric assessment and recommendations were documented in the EMR for patient’s future care, so outcome-assessment was not blinded.
