Hi everyone,

I have two logistic variables.
Variable 1: Patient received a care bundle (Yes/No)
Variable 2: If patient was readmitted within 30 days(Yes/No)

I want to find out the effect (if there is any) of patient's receiving the
bundle on their 30 days readmission.

Should I use logistic regression? If not, what else can I use to find the
effect (int terms or odd ratio). Also, in the sample, there are 340
patients who received the bundle, only 49 who didn't. Do I need to have
equal sample sizes to make a fair comparison?

Thank you for your help.
