Outcome measure All-day group (n = 206) Non-all-day group (n = 199) P value
Primary outcome
 In-hospital mortality, n (%) 73 (35.4) 85 (42.7) 0.133
Secondary outcomes
 Hospital LOS days, median (IQR)* 16.0 (8.0–34.25) 14.0 (5.0–29.0) 0.183
 Transfer to ICU, n (%)** 108 (52.4) 96 (48.2) 0.400
  ICU mortality, n (%) 32 (29.6) 33 (34.4) 0.468
  ICU LOS days, median (IQR)* 5.0 (2.0–11.0) 4.0 (2.0–9.0) 0.113
  Mechanical ventilator, n (%) 69 (63.9) 48 (50.0) 0.045
  CRRT, n (%) 32 (29.6) 41 (42.7) 0.052

LOS = length of stay, IQR = interquartile range, ICU = intensive care unit, CRRT = continuous renal replacement therapy, ECMO = extracorporeal membrane oxygenation

*Length of stay after the identification of sepsis
