| Abstract |
It is unknown whether a volume-outcome relationship exists for mechanically ventilated admissions to UK critical care units. This study was conducted to evaluate the volume-outcome relationship for mechanically ventilated admissions to adult, general critical care units in the UK with a view to informing policy, service delivery and organisation of specialist, advanced respiratory care. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 5. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 06 August 2020.
All research outputs
#6,119,347
of 23,577,654 outputs
Outputs from Intensive Care Medicine
#2,573
of 5,105 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#70,367
of 310,748 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Intensive Care Medicine
#22
of 63 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,577,654 research outputs across all sources so far. This one has received more attention than most of these and is in the 73rd percentile.
So far Altmetric has tracked 5,105 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 28.3. This one is in the 48th percentile – i.e., 48% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 310,748 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 76% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 63 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 60% of its contemporaries.
