Table 2

Multivariate analysis of the risk factors for noninvasive ventilation failure.

VariablesOR and 95%CI value

IBW (kg)1.110(1.027, 1.201)0.009
HR-MAX (bpm)1.024(1.004, 1.046)0.021
RR-MIN (bpm)1.198(1.051, 1.365)0.007
T-MAX (°C)1.838(1.038, 3.252)0.037

Data were presented as median (95% of confidence interval, CI); IBW, ideal body wight; HR-MAX, the maximal heart rate during NIV period (beats per minute, bpm); RR-MIN, the minimal respiratory rate during NIV period (breath per minute, bpm); T-MAX, the highest body temperature during NIV period.
