- Adjusted for admission diagnosis, hospital site, baseline NEq/MAP ratio, continuous renal replacement therapy, age, administration of hydrocortisone, and presence of liver cirrhosis
- APACHE Acute Physiology And Chronic Health Evaluation, CRRT continuous renal replacement therapy, MAP mean arterial pressure, NEq noradrenaline equivalents, NEq/MAP noradrenaline equivalents to MAP ratio (a higher ratio indicates higher vasopressor need to maintain a certain MAP)
