Values are presented as number (%). Patients receiving oxygen therapy did not include cases receiving mechanical ventilation treatment or ECMO and mortality cases; those receiving mechanical ventilation treatment did not include cases receiving ECMO and mortality cases; those receiving ECMO did not include mortality cases.
