Mechanical ventilation and hospital length of stay. Shown is a comparison of (a) duration of mechanical ventilation and (b) hospital length of stay. Patients who survived to hospital discharge with adrenal insufficiency (group 3 [second cortisol level < 15 μg/dl]) had longer ventilator duration and hospital stays than did others without adrenal insufficiency (groups 1 and 2 [second cortisol level ≥15 μg/dl]), as estimated by univariate Kaplan-Meier analysis.
