Notes

  1. The “no” category includes patients who meet the ARDS criteria, except for the requirement of PaO2/FiO2 ≤ 300 mmHg for the Berlin definition or SpO2/FiO2 ≤ 315 (if SpO2 ≤ 97%) for the new global definition.

  2. The result p < 10–15 is obtained both when including and when excluding the “no” category for the Chi-square test.
