---|---|---|---|---|
Total amount of loop diuretic (mg) (5 days completed) | No. | Mean | Median | SD |
Loop diuretic=0 | 1 | −0.20 | −0.2 | - |

Each diuretic that was classified into the loop diuretic group was converted to intravenous furosemide, i.e., 40 mg of oral furosemide and 60 mg of azosemide were equivalent to 20 mg of intravenous furosemide. SD, standard deviation.
