Assessment of 105 Patients with Angiotensin Converting Enzyme-Inhibitor Induced Angioedema

Table 6

Multivariate logistic regression analysis. Association between different factors and the need for admission. Significant result, peripheral angioedema less likely to cause the patient to be admitted. ¹High odds ratios for admission.
