| Pulmonary artery diastolic pressure | 1.04 | 0.99–1.09 | 0.15 |
| Mean pulmonary artery pressure | 1.04 | 0.99–1.09 | 0.06 |
| Transpulmonary gradient | 1.03 | 0.99–1.08 | 0.11 |
| Cardiac index | 5.55 | 1.43–21.48 | 0.01 |
| Pulmonary vascular resistance index | 1.001 | 1.00–1.002 | 0.01 |

| Right ventricular function index | 1.06 | 1.02–1.10 | 0.004 |
Note:
**
As all nonsurvivors had vasopressor use, so odds ratio could not be calculated.
