Models predicting coma, accounting for SIRS score of ≥ 2 and number of days with a SIRS score ≥ 2

Coma, n (%) SIRS ≥ 2, HR (95% CI) Days with SIRS ≥ 2, HR (95% CI)
All patients 1054 (32.9) 5.92 (5.03–6.97) 5.05 (4.27–5.98)
 Neuromuscular blocking agents with sedatives or opiatesa 197 (97.5) 1.33 (0.33–5.37) 1.61 (0.39–6.61)
 Sedatives or opiates, without neuromuscular blocking agentsa 720 (75.6) 1.90 (1.58–2.29) 1.94 (1.59–2.36)
 No neuromuscular blocking agents, sedatives, or opiatesa 137 (6.7) 5.08 (3.47–7.34) 4.70 (3.09–7.15)
