Laboratory data obtained on admission to Intensive Care, on day 2 and on day of discharge from Intensive Care. WCC: white cell count, CRP: C-Reactive protein, Hb: Haemoglobin. Parameters are displayed as median, range (IQR), mean ± standard deviation (SD) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) of means. CRP is not routinely measured during Intensive Care stay.
