Figures & data

Figure 1 Distribution of patient counts by missed treatment rate and cause.

Note: The number of patients who missed treatments for any cause (left panel), due to a documented medical event (including hospitalization, emergency department visit, or outpatient procedure; middle panel) or due to absence (right panel) is presented by the rate of missed treatments per patient-year.

Figure 2 Rates of hospitalization and mortality by attendance status.

Notes: The crude rates (per patient-year) of hospitalization (left panel) and mortality (right panel) within 30 days of the index treatment are presented; the rate for patients who attended the treatment is presented in light gray, whereas the rate for those who were absent from the treatment (ie, did not attend and did not have a documented medical event on the day of the missed treatment) is presented in dark gray. The adjusted IRR (95% CI) referent to patients who did attend the treatment is presented at the top of each panel.
Abbreviations: CI, confidence interval; IRR, incidence rate ratio.

Figure S1 Rates of hospitalization and death by attendance status (180-day outcome period).

Notes: The crude rates (per patient-year) of hospitalization (left panel) and mortality (right panel) within 180 days of the index treatment are presented; the rate for patients who attended the treatment is presented in light gray, whereas the rate for those who were absent from the treatment (ie, did not attend and did not have a documented medical event on the day of the missed treatment) is presented in dark gray. The adjusted IRR (95% CI) referent to patients who did attend the treatment is presented at the top of each panel.
