Figure 2

Hazard rate for ventilator-associated pneumonia over time after the diagnosis of severe acute respiratory distress syndrome. The hazard function evaluates the conditional probability of ventilator-associated pneumonia on the next day in an event-free patient. The hazard rate is the event rate per day over the duration of mechanical ventilation.
