The Stability and Workload Index for Transfer score predicts unplanned intensive care unit patient readmission: initial development and validation.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:Several studies have suggested that intravenous hydroxyethyl starch treatment may dampen acute inflammatory responses. It is well documented that limited oxygen delivery to tissues (hypoxia) is common in acute inflammation, and numerous parallels exist between acute responses to hypoxia and to inflammation, i...
