From: Likelihood of infection in patients with presumed sepsis at the time of intensive care unit admission: a cohort study

Fig. 3

Patient outcomes for various sites of infection stratified by plausibility of infection. Data are crude associations. The length of ICU stay (LoS) is shown as median. ICU-acquired infections (ICU-AI) were defined as infections that started >48 hours after admission with a plausibility of infection of at least possible. Acute kidney injury (AKI) and adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) that were present at or occurred during ICU admission were taken into account. Whiskers indicate the 95 % CI. p values indicate the results of the Cochran-Armitage chi-square test for trend. Urinary tract and skin/soft tissue infections are not shown because of relatively small subgroups after stratification
