متن کاملOne-year mortality in patients requiring prolonged mechanical ventilation: multicenter evaluation of the ProVent score
INTRODUCTION Current severity-of-illness indexes are unable to assess the long-term prognosis of patients requiring prolonged mechanical ventilation. A prognostic scoring system (Prognosis for Prolonged Ventilation score - ProVent - score) seems able to evaluate one-year mortality of such patients. However, testing of the model outside the developers' centers has not been reported. So, it is un...
