The study aimed to analyze patient mortality in the ICU room based on patient characteristics. The research method uses a quantitative descriptive approach. The population in this study were all patients in the ICU, while the sample was taken by consecutive sampling for 3 months from May-August 2019, there were 117 patients in which 35 patients died and 82 patients were alive. Univariate data analysis using frequency distribution. The results showed that less than half of patients who experienced death in the ICU (31.43%) were at the age of> 65 years, most of them (57, 14%) were male, more than half (68.57%) had long 1-3 days of care, most (97.14%) were not on a ventilator, all respondents (100%) were non-surgical patients and less than half of the respondents (34.28%) were patients with APACHE II score of 25 to 29. Related documentation and analysis the patient mortality should continue to be developed as material in the death audit which is useful in assessing the quality of nursing care in the ICU. It is necessary to do more studies or research on what factors most influence the incidence of mortality at ICU so that it is clear how to reduce the mortality rate
