Table 2 Results of multivariable analysis.

	B	OR	95% CI	p value
Aged ≥90 years	0.4	1.5	0.7–3.1	0.255
Disturbance of consciousness	0.9	2.6	1.3–5.2	0.008
Shock index ≥1^*	0.4	1.4	0.6–3.5	0.451
Oxygen administration ≥5 L/min	1.0	2.6	1.3–5.4	0.009
^* Shock index was calculated as heart rate divided by systolic blood pressure. B – regression coefficient; OR – odds ratio; CI – confidence interval. p values were calculated by logistic regression analysis using 4 items as covariates.
