From ALS prehospital medical reports, we retrieved the patients' demographic characteristics (age and gender), medical history (previous hypertension, cardiopathy, coronaropathy, chronic renal failure, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, diabetes mellitus, obesity, stroke, immunosuppression, asthma, and active smoking), initial (i.e., at the first medical contact) prehospital vital sign values (systolic blood pressure, heart rate (HR), pulse oximetry (SpO 2 ), respiratory rate (RR), temperature, and Glasgow coma scale (GCS)), and record of administered prehospital treatments (oxygen modality and catecholamine type and dose). Third, we assessed the relationship between HI and prehospital intubation using logistic regression-including the following potential confounders: age, hypertension, cardiopathy, coronaropathy, chronic renal failure, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, diabetes mellitus, obesity, immunosuppression, asthma, active smoking, systolic blood pressure, and HR-based on previous studies and physiopathological knowledge [6, 9, 11, 19, 20] .	./cache/cord-315634-fkm6slkc.txt	./txt/cord-315634-fkm6slkc.txt
