Independent variables1 | OR (95% CI) | Wald | P value |
---|---|---|---|
Patient HY stage | 12.15 (2.14–68.90) | 7.95 | 0.005 |
Caregiver QoL (ACQLI) | 0.90 (0.83–0.98) | 6.32 | 0.012 |
OR, odds ratio; CI, confidence interval; 1independent variables entered in the multivariable logistic regression model (backward method): age of the patient; housing of the patient; HY stage of the patient; professional home health care; MDS/PD-nurse contact past year; motor function of the patient (UPDRS III); generic health status of the patient (EQ-5D); patient satisfaction with care; caregiver QoL (ACQLI). Nagelkerke's pseudo R2 = 0.313; Hosmer and Lemeshow test: P=0.460. Bold P values statistically significant at P < 0.05.
