N = 892 patients included in the analysis. J: variables included in the regression model: age, gender, cardiac arrest, ongoing resuscitation on admission, ECG on admission, intubated/ventilated on admission, LVEF category, SBP, pH, lactate, and BE, statistically significant increase in the AUC when compared to previous model, OR: odds ratio, CI: confidence interval, AUC: area under the curve, BE: base excess, LVEF: left ventricular ejection fraction, SBP: systolic blood pressure, and ECG: electrocardiogram.
