| description | This study analyzed the frequency of follow-up patients at the ENT clinic and identified different factors that are associated with nonattendance at follow-up appointments since nonattendance imposes significant stress on the system of healthcare.
This study was an ambidirectional cohort study and conducted a telephonic survey with 104 ENT patients who missed their appointments.
The findings of the study revealed that patients missed their scheduled appointments because of transportation problems (46%), professional engagement (46%), family problems (44%), and financial problems (32.7%). However, patients didn't identify forgetfulness about the appointment, complete recovery, and health-related issues on the day of the appointment as the barrier to missing their scheduled appointment. The study assessed the relationship between socioeconomic status and the frequency of follow-up patients in an ENT clinic where transportation factor (

The study assessed the relationship between socioeconomic status and the frequency of follow-up patients in an ENT clinic where transportation factor (
< .000), working commitments (
< .004) affecting the "Lower Middle and Middle Class" individuals, and financial problems (
< .005), family problems (
< .028), feeling sick (
< .037) were significantly affecting the "Middle-Upper Class" and "Middle Class." Meanwhile, forgetfulness was not associated with the socio-economic status of the ENT patients (
= .237).
This study found transportation, family, financial issues, and professional commitments to be the key barriers to ENT appointment attendance, with Lower-Middle-Class patients particularly affected by forgetfulness. These missed appointments negatively impact patient health and strain the healthcare system.</description><identifier>ISSN: 0145-5613</identifier><identifier>ISSN: 1942-7522</identifier><identifier>EISSN: 1942-7522</identifier><identifier>DOI: 10.1177/01455613241283798</identifier><identifier>PMID: 39374084</identifier><language>eng</language><publisher>United States</publisher><ispartof>Ear, nose, & throat journal, 2024-10, p.1455613241283798</ispartof><lds50>peer_reviewed</lds50><oa>free_for_read</oa><woscitedreferencessubscribed>false</woscitedreferencessubscribed><cites>FETCH-LOGICAL-c226t-74d38d317de8e420745ce8bd49128d32899b6eb0017cc759f2249b7ff249147b3</cites><orcidid>0000-0002-1299-5522</orcidid></display><links><openurl>$$Topenurl_article</openurl><openurlfulltext>$$Topenurlfull_article</openurlfulltext><thumbnail>$$Tsyndetics_thumb_exl</thumbnail><link.rule.ids>314,780,784,864,27924,27925</link.rule.ids><backlink>$$Uhttps://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/39374084$$D View this record in MEDLINE/PubMed$$Hfree_for_read</backlink></links><search><creatorcontrib>Bahammam, Faris Ahmed</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Tolley, Neil</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Kuchai, Romana</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Benjamin, Elliot</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Rollin, Matthew</creatorcontrib><title>Analyzing Factors and Reasons Behind NonAttendance of ENT Patients: Clinical Audit</title><title>Ear, nose, & throat journal</title><addtitle>Ear Nose Throat J</addtitle><description>This study analyzed the frequency of follow-up patients at the ENT clinic and identified different factors that are associated with nonattendance at follow-up appointments since nonattendance imposes significant stress on the system of healthcare.
