Gender differences in outcome and use of resources do exist in Swedish intensive care, but to no advantage for women of premenopausal age.
(2015) In Critical Care 19(1).- Abstract
- Preclinical data indicate that oestrogen appears to play a beneficial role in the pathophysiology of and recovery from critical illness. In few previous epidemiologic studies, however, have researchers analysed premenopausal women as a separate group when addressing potential gender differences in critical care outcome. Our aim was to see if women of premenopausal age have a better outcome following critical care and to investigate the association between gender and use of intensive care unit (ICU) resources.
