Results of Wald tests for each variable are displayed, as well as log odds ratio estimates and their 95% confidence intervals. Coefficients and 95% confidence intervals are from the global model. *represents a significant p value (< 0.05). Total n = 3615

Values displayed for gender and age are given relative to females and children, respectively. The first year of admission was 2012
