ICU length of stay in days, geometric mean (95% CI) | 3.8 (3.0, 4.9) | 4.5 (2.8, 7.0) | 4.6 (3.2, 6.5) | 5.4 (4.0, 7.3) |

Note: Hospital LOS, adjusted for age, number of abnormal inflammatory mediators, race (non‐Hispanic white versus not), comorbidity (including obesity), bacterial or viral coinfection, and ICU admission (≤2 days) or WHO ordinal scale ≥ 4 on admission. ICU LOS includes PRISM and the WHO scale/ICU admission variable is replaced by WHO ordinal scale ≥ 4 on admission only.
