In multivariate analysis with adjustment for potential confounders, the increased risk of acute respiratory failure requiring mechanical ventilation was significantly associated with admission serum ionised calcium of \u22644.39 (OR 2.52; 95%\u2009CI 2.12 to 3.00), 4.40\u20134.59 (OR 1.76; 95%\u2009CI 1.49 to 2.07) and 4.60\u20134.79\u2009mg\/dL (OR 1.48; 95%\u2009CI 1.27 to 1.72), compared with serum ionised calcium of 5.00\u20135.19\u2009mg\/dL.
