Physical\/psychological prevalence (&gt;0) and clinically relevant prevalence (&gt;3) were calculated, and intensity (0-10) was summarized for all items at admission and across five predefined 3-day windows during the first month.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Among 2112 patients, 82 had short survival, 1825 had average survival, and 205 had prolonged survival.
