Factors Associated With Decisions to Withhold or Withdraw Intensive Care
Medical and socioeconomic data are extracted from the Swedish Intensive Care Registry (SIR), the Swedish National Patient Registry and Statistics Sweden for all adult patients admitted to in Swedish intensive care units between 2014-01-01 and 2020-12-31 with a diagnosis of sepsis and/or acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and/or coronavirus 19 (COVID-19) infection, and registered in SIR. The impact of demographic and socioeconomic factors on decisions to withhold or withdraw intensive care, and on mortality, are studied and statistically adjusted for level of chronic comorbidity and severity of acute illness.
