Hi all,
I have what is surely an embarrassingly basic question.
I am looking at the relationship between a specific medical diagnosis and unplanned admission to the hospital following outpatient surgery. My dataset has 100 patients. 77 without the diagnosis, 23 with. 5 patients in the dataset were admitted following surgery. All of them have the medical diagnosis.
Thus, it would seem that the diagnosis increases the odds of admission. However, when I perform the logistical regression analysis, it’s not significant with a p value of nearly 1. Why is this?
Thank you!!
