| Variable | Univariate analysis | Multivariate analysis | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| OR (95%CI) | P | OR (95%CI) | P | |
| LAScd (for each 1% increase) | 1.27 [1.10–1.47] | 0.001 | 1.24 [1.04–1.48] | 0.018 |
| LASr (for each 1% increase) | 0.89 [0.83–0.95] | 0.002 | NS | |
| SOFA cv > 1 | 6.4 [1.96–20.9] | 0.002 | 5.56 [1.41–22.11] | 0.015 |
| PEEP | 0.86 [0.68–1.09] | 0.86 | NR | – |
Bold indicates P < 0.05
The multivariable model showed a good calibration as assessed by the Hosmer and Lemeshow goodness of fit test [p = 0.98] and a fair discrimination as assessed by the receiver operating characteristics curve [area under the curve (AUC) 0.89; 95% CI 0.80–0.97; p < 0.001] (Fig. 4)
CI confidence interval, CV cardiovascular, LAScd left atrial strain during conduit phase, SOFA sequential organ failure assessment, PEEP positive end-expiratory pressure. NR not retained in the final model, NS not significant in the final model
