Regression Models for Predictors of Change in Weight at 48 Hours and Net Fluid Loss at 72 hours
Covariate | Change in Weight at 48 hours (N=294) | Net Fluid Loss at 72 hours (N=242) |
---|---|---|
| ||
P value | P value | |
|
||
Baseline creatinine | NA | .0062 |
Baseline weight | .36 (+) | NA |
Outpatient furosemide dose | 94 (+) | Interaction factor |
Continuous mode of therapy | .31 (−) | Interaction factor |
Continuous mode × outpatient dose | NA | .01 |
High initial IV diuretic dose | .0002 (−) | .001 |
The (+) and (−) after the P values signify the directionality of the regression coefficients. NA indicates that the covariate was not tested in the regression model. The number (N) of patients with data available for each regression model is specified. The P values for the interaction factors are not interpretable on their own given their relationship with the interaction term and are not reported.
