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
