  1. Predicted death in ICU included death in ICU and discharging from ICU against medical advice because of critical conditions and the desire to pass away at home
  2. N-CLABSI, non-central line-associated bloodstream infection; PS, propensity score; β, unstandardized coefficients of multiple linear regression model; OR, odds ratio; CI, confidence interval; LOS, length of stay; ICU, intensive care unit
  3. *Continuous outcomes were analyzed by multiple linear regression models
  4. †Categorical outcomes were analyzed by logistic regression models
  5. ‡p values < 0.05 are shown in italics
