Candidate predictors for PECSS
pain
REGRESSION, BLOOD
Using data from 2555 patients in the derivation set, we assessed the association strength with PE status for each clinical predictor. Univariate logistic regression showed that age above 65 years old, low hemoglobin, high white blood cell, neutrophil and monocyte, high C-reaction protein, abnormal blood pressure, high N-terminal (NT)-pro hormone BNP, low blood albumin and high blood Alanine transaminase, low blood Creatinine, high blood Uric Acid, presence of anhelation, lower levels of pain scale and in critical condition when admitted were significantly associated with increased risk for PE (Fig. Univariate association of each clinical predictor with PE status. Odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) were obtained from univariate logistic regression model. Hgb, hemoglobin; WBC, white blood cell count; NEUT, neutrophil count; MONO, monocyte count; PLT, platelet; CRP, c-reaction protein; abnormal BP, abnormal blood pressure; pro-BNP, N-terminal (NT)-pro hormone BNP; ALB, blood albumin; ALT, Alanine transaminase; GLO, globulin; Cr, creatinine; BUN, Blood Urea Nitrogen; UA, blood uric acid; cTNT, cardiac troponin test
