Table 4.

Odds Ratios of Secondary Outcomes for Influenza Patients who Present Without Fever After Adjustment for Age (<65 Years or ≥65 Years), Sex, Charlson Comorbidity Index Score, Risk Factors for Influenza Complications, Immunosuppression, and Duration of Illness (<3 Days or ≥3 Days)

Outcomes aOR (95% CI) P Value
Diagnostic testing in EDa 0.51 (0.34–0.76) <.001
Oseltamivir treatment 0.51 (0.34–0.75) <.001
Intensive care unit stayb 1.13 (0.59–2.16) .709
30-d re-presentation 0.97 (0.51–1.84) .927
In-hospital mortality 6.36 (1.22–33.2) .028

An OR <1 indicates less likely to have a specified outcome. Full models are included in Supplementary Tables 1–5.

Abbreviations: aOR, adjusted odds ratio; ED, emergency department; ICU, intensive care unit; PCR, polymerase chain reaction.
