Fig. 1 Cumulative incidence of intensive care unit (ICU) -acquired extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (ESBL-E) infections, in-ICU deaths and ICU discharges in periods with and without active surveillance culture (ASC) for the detection of ESBL-E carriage. (a) Cumulative incidence of ICU-acquired ESBL-E infections in periods with and without ASC as compared using a Fine and Gray model with in-ICU death or ICU discharge considered as competing events; (b) Cumulative incidence of in-ICU death in periods with and without ASC compared using a Fine and Gray model adjusted on the Simplified Acute Physiology Score II value at ICU admission and with ICU discharge considered as a competing event.
