Addition of SNAP to perinatal risk factors improves the prediction of bronchopulmonary dysplasia or death in critically ill preterm infants

Table 2 Multivariate logistic regression final model predicting BPD or death ^a

BPD bronchopulmonary dysplasia, CI confidence interval, SNAP the score for neonatal acute physiology.
^aVariables with P <0.2 in the unadjusted analysis (Table 1) were entered into a backward stepwise multivariate logistic regression analysis. ^bData from all preterm infants (n =160) were analyzed to predict BPD or death (n =58). ^cOdds ratio per 1-point increase in SNAP.
The p value of the Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test for the final model was 0.333.
