Outcomes data, hypotension defined as SBP ≤90 mm Hg

	Hypotensive patients (n=20)	Normotensive patients (n=272)	p Value
ICU admissions	70%	30.51%	0.0008
ICU LOS (days)	1	0	0.0002
Hospital LOS	6.5	4	0.0011
Ventilator days	0	0	0.0024*
Repeat hypotensive episodes	85%	48.53%	0.0019
PRBC in first 24 hours	20%	3.69%	0.0105

Data are presented as median or percent (patients).

*HP were found to have significantly higher ventilator days compared to NP based on the Mann-Whitney-Wilcoxon test despite equivalent medians. Detailed explanation is provided in the Methods section.

ICU, intensive care unit; LOS, length of stay; PRBC, packed red blood cells; SBP, systolic blood pressure.
