Data are presented median (25th percentile, 75th percentile) or n (%). ICU, intensive care unit; MV, mechanical ventilation; h, hours.
4 patients in the EOS group and 29 patients in the non-EOS group received mechanical ventilation. Duration of mechanical ventilation was compared in these patients between two groups.
24 patients in the EOS group and 135 patients in the non-EOS group received non-invasive ventilation. Duration of non-invasive ventilation was compared in these patients between two groups.
