P values are based on generalized linear mixed effects models with a logit-link and Binomial distribution variance, adjusting for state (binary), teaching status (binary), location (urban, suburban, rural), hospital size (≤99 beds, 100–499 beds, and ≥500 beds) and ICU type (mixed, medical, surgical/trauma, cardiac).
