When the initial PF ≤ 100, bilateral infiltrates were associated with higher mortality for those on NIV ( p = 0.0495) with a strong trend for those on IMV ( p = 0.06, Fig. 1 ).

Patients were stratified by the initial degree of oxygenation impairment as measured by PALICC grouping, and bilateral infiltrates on initial CXR were associated with higher mortality for those with NIV PARDS (19.1% vs 5.9%, p = 0.03), with a nonsignificant trend for higher mortality in those with severe PARDS based on OI/OSI criteria ( 34% vs 16%, p = 0.07, Table 1 a).
