Crude outcomes among patients undergoing non-clinical transfer compared with propensity-matched patients not undergoing transfer

	Non-clinical transfer patients (n = 759)	Propensity-matched patients not undergoing transfer (n = 1,518)
Ultimate acute hospital mortality	223 (29.4%)	471 (31.0%)
Ultimate critical care unit mortality	162 (21.3%)	345 (22.7%)
Total critical care unit length of stay (days)	11.0 (16.9)/6 (2 to 14)	7.8 (9.7)/4 (2 to 9)
Acute hospital length of stay (days)	29.8 (36.4)/19 (9 to 37)	26.9 (33.8)/16 (7 to 33)

Crude outcomes among patients undergoing a non-clinical transfer within 48 hours of admission to critical care compared with propensity matched patients not undergoing transfer. Data presented as n (%) or mean (standard deviation)/median (interquartile range).
