Values are expressed as median (interquartile range) or numbers (proportion)

Italicized text in the p value column indicates a statistically significant correlation (p < 0.05)

Pulmonary indications included pneumonia (n = 102), sepsis (n = 78), respiratory failure (n = 18), ARDS (n = 17), trauma (n = 6), and drowning (n = 3). Cardiac indications included cardiogenic shock (n = 18) and pulmonary embolism (n = 1)
