Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| To assess red cell distribution width at admission as a marker to predict mortality in patients with Acute Respiratory Failure requiring mechanical ventilationTimepoint: To assess red cell distribution width at admission that is base line and 48 hours after admission as a marker to predict mortality in patients with Acute Respiratory Failure requiring mechanical ventilation | — |
Secondary
