International audience. The COVID-19 crisis has highlighted the procedures for managing the flow of patients to intensive care units. These procedures are based on one tool: the Rockwood Clinical Frailty Scale. The doctors we interviewed were unfamiliar with this tool. By trying to understand these practices, our dialogical mediated inquiry highlights the importance of a medico-economic thinking based on a definition of dependency, understood as a resources consumption. Prevention of the risk of dependency is akin to care resources allocation according to the potential cost that a patient's dependency could represent for the care system or for the society. . La crise de la COVID-19 a mis en lumière des procédures de gestion de flux des patients vers les services de réanimation. Ces procédures utilisent un outil : l’échelle de fragilité clinique de Rockwood. Cet outil est peu connu par les médecins que nous avons interrogés. En tentant de comprendre ces pratiques, notre enquête dialogique médiatisée met en évidence l’importance d’une pensée médico-économique reposant sur une définition de la dépendance, entendue comme consommation de ressources. La prévention du risque de dépendance peut alors s’apparenter à une allocation des ressources de soins en fonction du coût potentiel que la dépendance d’un patient pourrait représenter pour le système de soins ou pour la société.
