Figure 3. HCRU during follow-up in patients with TDT. Abbreviations: ER, emergency room; HCRU, healthcare resource utilization; PPPY, per patient per year; SD, standard deviation; TDT, transfusion-dependent β-thalassemia. aPatients had a mean rate of 13.8 (SD: 6.1) day cases (<1 day), 1.0 (SD: 2.7) overnight stays (≥1 day), and 26.0 (SD: 49.4) total days hospitalized PPPY. bThe mean rate of ER visits PPPY that were followed by an inpatient hospitalization was 0.2 (SD: 0.4).
