All p values were calculated using Fisher's exact test for 2×2 contingency table because of an expected cell count <5, except where noted with † to indicate that χ² analysis was performed because of adequate sample size.

*Positive association: more likely to be discussed when clinician present at rounds; negative association: less likely to be discussed when clinician present at rounds.
