Table 5 Accuracy of TFC in predicting weaning failure in cardiac and non-cardiac patients
From: Thoracic fluid content: a novel parameter for predicting failed weaning from mechanical ventilation
Parameter | AUC (95% CI) | Sensitivity | Specificity | PPV | NPV | Cutoff value |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
All patients | 0.69 (0.57–0.80)* | 65.2% | 75.6% | 60.0% | 79.5% | > 50 kΩ−1 |
Cardiac patients | 0.93 (0.72–1.00)* | 85.7% | 92.3% | 85.7% | 92.3% | > 50 kΩ−1 |
Non-cardiac patients | 0.57 (0.42–0.72) | 37.5% | 92.9% | 75.0% | 72.2% | > 65 kΩ−1 |
