Table 2 Higher biomarker levels were associated with higher possibility of death as a predictor of 30-day mortality.
Variable | Odds ratio | 95% CI | P-value |
---|---|---|---|
Lactate 4.0 | 3.1929 | (1.98–5.14) | 0.00006 |
Troponin >0.045 | 2.12741 | (1.51–2.99) | 0.00027 |
NT-proBNP >8000 | 2.497 | (1.69–3.70) | 0.00013 |
NT-proBNP – N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide; CI – confidence interval. |
