Abstract Introduction Prediction of death and prolonged mechanical ventilation is important in terms of projecting resource utilization and in establishing protocols for clinical studies of acute lung injury ALI . We aimed to identify risk factors for a combined end-point of death and or prolonged ventilator dependence and developed an ALI-specific prediction model. Methods In this retrospective analysis of three multicenter clinical studies we identified predictors of death or ventilator dependence from variables prospectively recorded during the first .
