Table 6. Multivariate analysis of risk factors for nosocomial infection.
Variables | Adjusted OR (95% CI) | P value |
---|---|---|
Pre-ECMO creatinine level, mg/dL | 2.176 (1.065–4.447) | 0.033 |
Duration of ECMO support, day | 1.400 (1.081–1.815) | 0.011 |
OR = odds ratio, CI = confidence interval, ECMO = extracorporeal membrane oxygenation.
*Variables with a probability valve < 0.20 in univariate analyses were candidates for multivariate analysis. The candidate variables were gender, pre-ECMO creatinine level, transfusion history, and duration of ECMO support.
