Obesity in critically ill patients is associated with increased need of mechanical ventilation but not with mortality

Summary: Worldwide incidence of obesity is increasing and impaired outcome in postoperative patients has been described. Antibiotic prescribing is complicated by different pharmacology in this population. This study evaluates mortality and morbidity of obese postoperative patients and explores possi...
