From: Death in hospital following ICU discharge: insights from the LUNG SAFE study
Patients with no treatment limitations who die in hospital require comparable or lower degrees of ventilatory support on the last day of assisted ventilation in the ICU compared to survivors at ICU discharge. Specifically, last day FiO2 (a) and peak initiatory pressures (b) were lower, while tidal volume, respiratory rates, dynamic compliance and minute volumes (c–f) were similar, in comparison to hospital survivors
