IVF=intravenous fluids, UOP=urine output, VIS=vasoactive inotropic score=dopamine dose (μg/kg/min) + dobutamine (μg/kg/min) + 100 × epinephrine dose (μg/kg/min) + 166 × vasopressin dose (units/kg/hr) + 100 × norepinephrine (μg/kg/min), EFI=endothelial function index, AUC=area under the curve

Total time intubated was collected beyond 48 hours if necessary until patient was successfully extubated for 24 hours.
