Generalized Linear Models for assessing association between alert and hospital length of stay and ventilator days §

DERIVATION SET B (95%CI) n=18,643 VALIDATION SET B (95%CI) n=18,658
Hospital length of stay
    SIRS/OD alert + 2·8 (2·6, 3·0)*** + 3·0 (2·7, 3·2)***
Ventilator days
    SIRS/OD alert + 1·5 (1·3, 1·7)*** + 1·6 (1·4, 1·8)***
