B Time trends of disease severity estimated by SAPS II and nursing workload estimated by NEMS in ICU patients admitted with ischemic stroke. ICU, intensive care unit; NEMS, Nine Equivalents of Nursing Manpower Use Score; SAPS II, Simplified Acute Physiology Score II. Data are presented as fraction of ICU patients at or above the threshold for the respective score (SAPS ≥ 39 or NEMS ≥ 21)Back to article page
