Table 3
Characteristics of infections, associated post-ICU in-hospital mortality (PIIHM) frequencies and risk factors of PIIHM (bivariate logistic regression). Primary bacteremia include catheter-related infections and endocarditis; other sites include neurological, ears, nose, and throat (sinusitis, epiglottitis, otitis, tracheitis), thoracic, genital tract, skin and soft tissue, and bone and joint. Odds ratio computed by bivariate logistic regression; 95% confidence interval calculated by bivariate logistic regression. Some patients had infection at more than one site, and at more than one organism
