Associations between hospital process-structure factors and reported delivery of high-level activity to patients on mechanical ventilation
High-Level Activity Hospitals (n = 22) | OR | 95% CI | P Value | |
---|---|---|---|---|
Hospital volume >20,000 patient-days/yr, n (%) | 16 (72.7) | 5.33 | 1.54–18.48 | 0.008 |
ICU volume >5,000 patient-days/yr, n (%) | 15 (68.2) | 5.20 | 1.51–17.93 | 0.008 |
Part of a larger hospital network, n (%) | 13 (59.1) | 2.57 | 0.80–8.21 | 0.11 |
Academic ICU, n (%) | 11 (52.4) | 4.40 | 1.23–15.63 | 0.02 |
Intensivist-led ICU, n (%) | 4 (18.2) | 1.17 | 0.28–4.94 | 0.84 |
Advanced care providers in ICU, n (%) | 17 (77.3) | 4.33 | 1.24–14.93 | 0.02 |
Computerized order entry, n (%) | 17 (77.3) | 1.32 | 0.37–4.75 | 0.68 |
Written protocol for ICU activity, n (%) | 14 (63.6) | 5.54 | 1.60–19.18 | 0.006 |
