ICU: intensive care unit, SD: standard deviation, aOR: adjusted odds ratio, CI: confidence interval, CABG: coronary artery bypass grafting, DM: diabetes mellitus, IHD: ischemic heart disease, VHD: valvular heart disease, COPD: chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, CKD: chronic kidney disease, LVEF: left ventricular ejection fraction, Preop Hb: preoperative hemoglobin, CPB: cardiopulmonary bypass, ACC: aortic cross-clamp.

Model χ2 = 17.404, p = 0.001 and Hosmer and Lemeshow p = 0.398 indicates that the model fits the data. The classification table reports that overall expected model performance is 78.5%, that is, 78.5% of the cases can be expected to be classified correctly by the model.
