Table 3. Resource utilization and mortality in subjects with underlying medical conditions.
Differences are presented as odds ratios (OR) for proportional variables (mortality, proportion in ICU, and any comorbidity), and as differences in medians for continuous variables (Hospital length of stay (LOS), ICU LOS, and cost). Costs are presented as 2012 dollars.
