Multinomial logistic regression analysis of risk factors for nephrotoxicity and ototoxicity
| RIFLE nephrotoxicity vs. no ADR | Ototoxicity vs. no ADR | Nephrotoxicity AND ototoxicity vs. no ADR | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Variable | aOR | 95%CI | aOR | 95%CI | aOR | 95%CI |
| Age (per 1-year increase) | 1.08 | 1.03–1.12 | 1.01 | 0.94–1.07 | 1.11 | 1.05–1.17 |
| Male | 0.58 | 0.17–2.04 | 3.67 | 0.54–24.82 | 2.88 | 0.50–16.67 |
| Tobacco use | 0.24 | 0.08–0.75 | 0.26 | 0.06–1.18 | 0.20 | 0.05–0.80 |
| Baseline CrCl (per 1 unit increase) | 1.05 | 1.02–1.07 | 0.96 | 0.92–1.00 | 1.01 | 0.98–1.04 |
| Initial injectable 1000 mg vs. 750 mg | 1.27 | 0.24–6.77 | 1.30 | 0.15–11.18 | 0.29 | 0.04–1.97 |
RIFLE = Risk, Injury, Failure, Loss of kidney function, and End-stage kidney disease; aOR = adjusted odds ratio; CI = confidence interval; ADR = adverse drug reaction; CrCl = creatinine clearance.
