Odds ratios come from logistic regression models estimated for each outcome individually. Each model includes a variable indicating whether the nurse, in the case of nurse outcomes, or patient in the case of patient outcomes, is in a Kaiser hospital, a Magnet hospital, or a hospital that is neither Kaiser nor Magnet. All results shown are from models that controlled for hospital characteristics and in the case of nurse outcomes models, included nurse characteristics, and for patient outcomes models, accounted for patient characteristics.
