- Low, average and high-risk categories were based on clinical impression. ^There is a maximum amount of 2% of missing values in each category, due to clinical data not recorded (for example males and females in the failed population add up to 50, instead of 51); *comparison between passed and failed using Wilcoxon rank-sum test to compare the medians, or chi-square test to compare the proportions (no P value was provided for those variables with less than five samples); xcomputed through Richmond agitation-sedation scale (RASS) score; +heart comorbidities are coronary artery bypass graft, dilated cardiomyopathy, congestive heart failure, and coronary artery disease; lung comorbidities are pulmonary fibrosis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), asthma; ‘None’ corresponds to no lung or heart comorbidities. APACHE II, acute physiology and chronic health evaluation II; ICU, intensive care unit; SBT, spontaneous breathing trial; PEEP, positive end-expiratory pressure; PS, pressure support; FiO2, fraction of inspired oxygen.
