The coefficient describes the increase in lowest oxygen saturation (%) or change in odds ratio associated with bag-mask ventilation compared to apneic oxygenation, an increase in age of 1 year, an increase in BMI of 1 kg/m2, an increase in APACHE II score of 1 point, and an increase in oxygen saturation at induction of 1%.
