Full regression models for primary analysis are found in Appendix Table 2 (multivariable logistic regression for 30-day mortality) and Table 3 (multiple linear regression for length of hospitalization).

*

Because the propensity match was performed with replacement, we performed an unconditional multivariable logistic regression analysis on the 30-day mortality outcome in order to account for the multiplicities as weighted in the matched controls.
