  1. Coefficient values are presented as medians (with 25th and 75th percentiles). R2 = 0.237. CI, confidence interval; COPD, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease; CVP, central venous pressure; Dx, diagnostic group; PiCCO, pulse contour cardiac output; R, reason for catheter insertion; SAPS II, simplified acute physiology score.
