Hello. I have what I assume to be a relatively simple question...
For an HIV programme in Benin we had 59 persons lost to follow-up.
We were able to do home visits for 41 persons, after which 33 returned to clinical care.
Of those 18 we were not able to visit, only 8 returned to clinical care.
What is the most efficient way to create a mini database to define the odds ratio...the odds of returning for clinical care after a home visit as compared to those not visited. I could simply go into the Data Editor of a blank database and enter the numbers...but Id like to type in the data.
Visited 41 (33 reintegrated)
Not Visited 18 (8 reintegrated)
Total 59
Thank you for this service
