Ocular diseases and their association with mortality in intensive care unit patients: a retrospective cohort study from the MIMIC-IV database

ICU patients with chronic ocular diseases exhibited higher long-term mortality. Acute ocular diseases may indicate a higher severity of illness in critically ill patients. Within the subgroup of acute ocular diseases, acute non-traumatic haemorrhagic ocular diseases were independently associated with increased in-hospital mortality. Limitations include retrospective under-ascertainment of asymptomatic cases and inability to distinguish aetiologies.

Abstract

ICU patients with chronic ocular diseases exhibited higher long-term mortality. Acute ocular diseases may indicate a higher severity of illness in critically ill patients. Within the subgroup of acute ocular diseases, acute non-traumatic haemorrhagic ocular diseases were independently associated with increased in-hospital mortality. Limitations include retrospective under-ascertainment of asymptomatic cases and inability to distinguish aetiologies.
