Abstract
The article examines the demographic, clinical and survival data in critically ill patients with solid tumours. In a study conducted among 177 critically ill patients with solid tumours, a multivariate analysis was used to determine the independent prognostic factors for in-intensive care unit (ICU) patients, including the need for vasopressors. A cox multivariate analysis was also used to determine the length of stay in the ICU.
