“…For example, highvolume hospital admissions were 25% less likely to experience respiratory complications in both databases. Given the well-established importance of shorter ICU stays and earlier mobilization in reducing complications, readmission, and mortality, 21,23,27 this represents another potential benefit of high-volume hospitals. Because trauma volume is a criterion for verification of level I PTCs, these centers are often overrepresented in high-volume hospitals for trauma.…”

“…In addition, obesity has been shown to increase the risk of prolonged hospitalization, critical illness, and need for mechanical ventilation in association with other respiratory infectious diseases such as influenza and pneumonia [ 24 28 ]. A prolonged length of stay (LOS) in intensive care reflects a more severe disease with a need for long rehabilitation [ 29 31 ].…”

“…This is in contrast to the previously existing standard of care at the institutions included in this analysis of mandatory bed rest for patients who required temporary pacing leads. Early mobilization in critically ill patients has been shown to be associated with decreased rates of delirium, readmission or death, ventilator‐assisted pneumonia, and central line and catheter infections . The Tempo lead's active fixation mechanism may also allow some patients with postprocedure conduction disturbances to recover on general hospital wards rather than in the intensive care unit with reduced in‐hospital costs.…”
