Favourable responders were defined as patients in whom, at 24 hours after hydrocortisone initiation, either (1) systolic blood pressure was increased or unchanged and vasoactive-inotrope score was decreased or (2) systolic blood pressure increased by \u2a7e10% of baseline and vasoactive-inotrope score was unchanged.

Among them, 14 (58%) patients responded favourably to hydrocortisone. At 24 hours, the median change in vasoactive-inotrope score was \u221218% in favourable responders and +31% in those who did not respond favourably, p<jats:italic>=<\/jats:italic>0.001.
