Data presented as number (%) or median (Interquartile range, IQR).

ICU = intensive care unit.

^*P value < .05 considered statistical significant.

^†Analyzed from patients who were admitted in the ICU (Total n = 51, non-stroke = 16, stroke = 35).

^#Analyzed from patients who were on postoperative ventilators (Total n = 40, non-stroke = 13, stroke = 27).
