The main outcome measures were overall mortality, duration of hospital treatment and renal function in survivors.
All studies reported short-term outcomes (ICU mortality, duration of mechanical ventilation, and ICU LOS).
Finally, CT results strongly influence reoperation rate, mortality, duration of postoperative fasting and hospitalization [10, 11, 12].
Fig. 2 Impact of antibiotic prophylaxis on early VAP, ICU mortality, duration of mechanical ventilation, and ICU length of stay.
There was also no significant difference in survival time, in-hospital mortality, duration of organ support, or length of hospital stay.
The 1-year mortality, duration of mechanical ventilation, intensive care unit (ICU) and hospital length of stays were significantly increased among patients who developed AKI.
The following variables were collected: 28-day mortality, duration of mechanical ventilation, ICU length of stay, infections, and expressed as mean ± standard deviations or median ± interquartiles accordingly.
Relations between PhA and 28-day mortality, duration of mechanical ventilation or ICU length of stay were analyzed by Kaplan Meier actuarial curves and Spearman test.
There was no significant difference in blood transfusion requirements, in-hospital mortality, duration of organ support, or length of hospital stay.
Differences in gender, age, surgical procedures, mortality, duration of hospitalization, stay in the ICU, ventilation-free days, multiorgan failure, and transfused packed red blood cells (PRBC) are illustrated in Table 1.
In a multicenter study of 559 patients with ARDS, higher plasma levels of VWF were independently associated with adverse outcomes, including mortality, duration of unassisted ventilation, and organ failures [60].
