Fig. 3From: Morpho-functional evaluation of lung aeration as a marker of sickle-cell acute chest syndrome severity in the ICU: a prospective cohort studyLength-of-stay in the intensive care unit (ICU) and in the hospital according to the lung aeration assessed by the lung ultrasound (LU) re-aeration score or the inspiratory vital capacity (IVC). Patients with a negative LU re-aeration score had longer stays in ICU (a) and in hospital (b) than patients with a positive LU re-aeration score. Patients with an increased IVC at D2 had a slightly shorter ICU stay than patients without IVC increase (c), while there were no differences between groups in hospital length-of-stay (d)Back to article page
