Table 4 A stepwise regression model for exclusion or inclusion clinical risk factors in rtPA administration. Positive B values (Adjusted, OR > 1) represent the variables that are more closely related to rtPA administration while negative B values (Adjusted. OR < 1) represent the variables more closely related to rtPA exclusion. Interactions among independent variables and multicollinearity were analyzed. The model fitness was evaluated by applying the Hosmer-Lemeshow test (P = 0.305), Cox & Snell (R2 = 0.276), and classification table (overall correctly classified percentage = 77.3%)
