Logistic Regression Analysis of Factors Associated With Ventilator-Associated Pneumonia in PICU Patients
| OR | 95% CI | P | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Genetic syndrome | 2.27 | 0.972–5.29 | .058 |
| Transport out of the PICU | 7.61 | 3.22–17.96 | .0001 |
| Reintubation | 2.45 | 1.05–5.75 | .038 |
| Transfusion | 2.65 | 1.03–6.80 | .043 |
OR indicates odds ratio; CI, confidence interval.
The final model had a Hosmer and Lemeshow test significance of 0.801 and a −2 log likelihood of 193.
Variables entered into the model were PRISM score ≥10, genetic syndrome, transport out of the PICU, reintubation, TPN, transfusion, steroids, and bloodstream infection.
