Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score, blood lactate level, and arterial partial oxygen pressure / F_IO₂ (P/F) ratio were calculated from the values at ICU admission. Ve is a minute ventilation volume measured at the exhaust port and the values are expressed as BTPS (body temperature, pressure, water vapor saturated)
CTICU stands for cardiothoracic intensive care unit, ER emergency room, MICU medical intensive care unit, CAD coronary artery disease, COPD chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
