Geographic variability in rates of intensive care unit admission in patients with chronic liver disease and critical COVID-19: International registry data

ABSTRACT

P048 Figure 1ConclusionPatients with CLD and critical COVID-19 were over 3-times more likely to be admitted to ICU in the USA than the UK despite having similar baseline characteristics. However, the rates of mortality following ICU admission were comparable between the two countries. The differing thresholds for escalation to ICU but similar post admission outcomes warrants further discussion.
