Median time from infection to outcome (IQR)—d 7 [3, 13] 7 [3, 14] .77
Level of respiratory support at most severe

Received low‐flow supplemental oxygen 44 (34.4%) 1544.5 (39.5%) .28
Received non‐invasive ventilation or high‐flow oxygen devices 16 (12.5%) 830.66 (21.3%) .02
Received invasive mechanical ventilation 38 (29.7%) 792.57 (20.3%) .01
Received ECMO 0 (0%) 10.1 (0.3%) 1.00
No evidence of respiratory support 0 (0%) 10.1 (0.3%) 1.00

Intensive care and vasopressors are considered received if the patient received intensive care or vasopressor support, respectively, at any point in the hospital stay. Level of respiratory support at most severe is defined as the highest daily level reached during hospitalization on the modified 5‐point scale.

Abbreviations: AKI, acute kidney injury; ARDS, acute respiratory distress syndrome; ECMO, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation; ICU, intensive care unit.
