Logistic regression models were used to examine the relationship between ICU strain and hospital mortality. Results: 57,844 ICU admissions were analysed, with the majority (64.4%) admitted to medium-strain ICUs. Those admitted to high-strain ICUs spent longer in hospital prior to ICU than medium-strain or low-strain ICUs. After adjusting for confounders those admitted to high-strain ICUs [OR 1.24 (95%CI 1.14–1.35)] or medium-strain ICUs [OR 1.18 (95%CI 1.09–1.27)], (p < 0.001) had a higher risk of death compared low-strain ICUs. Conclusion: ICU strain is associated with longer times in hospital prior to ICU admission and was associated with increased risk of death in patients admitted from ward.]]> Mon 24 Oct 2022 09:17:40 AEDT ]]> The Australian Health Care Homes trial: quality of care and patient outcomes.
