Logistic Regression Model to Quantify Effect of Beta-Lactam Receipt on 30-Day and 90-Day Mortality Rates in Patients With MSSA Bacteremia While Adjusting for Confounders

Variable Odds Ratio (95% CI) P Value
30-d mortality model
 Beta-lactam 0.26 (0.12–0.54) <.01
 SOFA score 1.30 (1.14–1.47) <.01
 Age > 65 y 2.03 (0.96–4.30) .06
90-d mortality model
 Beta-lactam 0.41 (0.21–0.81) .01
 SOFA score 1.30 (1.16–1.46) <.01
 Age > 65 y 1.88 (0.97–3.64) .06
 CHF 1.94 (1.01–3.72) .05
 Cancer 2.48 (1.26–4.90) .01

Abbreviations: CHF, congestive heart failure; CI, confidence interval; MSSA, methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus; SOFA, sequential organ failure assessment.
