Prior GLP-1 agonist use is not associated with ICU length of stay in critically ill patients.

Clinicians may determine that prior GLP-1 agonist use does not affect ICU length of stay for critically ill patients.

StrongRefutesmedium confidence
The matched GLP-1 agonist and comparison groups showed similar ICU length of stay (5.9 ± 9.0 vs. 5.4 ± 6.6 days, MD: 0.51, 95% CI: -0.52 to 1.50, p = .33).
