Figure 5

Factors affecting penicillin allergy management. Multivariate analysis by using multinomial logistic regression demonstrates that area of expertise was the main factor determining penicillin allergy management. Data represent the odds ratio with 95% confidence intervals of how non-allergists manage penicillin allergy compared to allergists except #, which represent the odds ratio with 95% confidence intervals of how physicians who have less than 5 years’ clinical experience manage penicillin allergy compared to those who have longer than 10 years’ clinical experience.
