Thus&#44; our results may not be reproducible in other general hospital wards&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">We hope that the present study can fill a gap in Portuguese published data&#44; giving a &#8220;real life&#8221;

</span><a href="&#35;bib12" class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span></a>&#46; The vast majority of published evidence is based on studies conducted in highly controlled settings such as respiratory intermediate care units &#40;RICU&#41;
