Descriptive analyses
EVENTS, SECONDARY
We first described the distribution of the score of exposure to the strategy in our sample, overall and by group. We then described patients’ characteristics at admission, overall, and stratified on (1) the quartile of score of exposure to the strategy, and (2) both the ICU and the group, using mean (standard deviation [SD]) or median (interquartile range [IQR]) for continuous variables, and counts (percentages) for categorical variables.Then, we described survival time, vital status at Day 60, and total number (%) of events for each secondary outcome, overall and stratified on (1) the quartile of the score of exposure to the strategy, and (2) both the ICU and the group.
