TABLE 4.

The distribution of a simple intensive care unit (ICU) tuberculosis score to predict death in tuberculosis-infected patients admitted to the ICU

ICU tuberculosis score	Survivors (n=33)	Nonsurvivors (n=20)
0	22 (67)	0 (0)
1	8 (24)	5 (25)
2	3 (9)	12 (60)
3	0 (0)	3 (15)

Data presented as n (%).

^*The score (values from 0 to 3) is based on the sum of three parameters: military tuberculosis (yes: +1, no: 0), required mechanical ventilation on ICU admission (yes: +1, no: 0), and required vasopressor infusion (yes: +1, no: 0).
