Delayed ICU admission and the severity of critical illness determine the short- and medium-term mortality rates of HIV-infected patients admitted to the ICU, rather than factors associated with HIV infection. These results suggest that prognostic factors of HIV-infected patients in the ICU are similar to those of non-HIV-infected populations.
