Only about half of patients with alcohol use disorder who are admitted to ICU receive thiamine

An observational study of patients with alcohol use disorder (AUD) admitted to intensive care units throughout the United States found that almost half of the people evaluated did not receive thiamine (also called vitamin B1) supplementation. Patients with AUD who were admitted for reasons other than alcohol withdrawal had both a numerically lower incidence and lower predicted probability of receiving thiamine than those admitted for alcohol withdrawal. The findings are published in Annals of Internal Medicine.
