Time line of the two consecutive studies and interval period. (a) In both studies interventions were separated by a one month wash-in wash-out period (not shown) [3,6]. The baseline period is the control period in which ICUs used standard care, not including SDD or SOD. All centres continued SDD in the interval period (grey). The end of the intervention period marks the end of the study. ICU, intensive care unit; SDD, selective digestive tract decontamination; SOD, selective oropharyngeal decontamination.
