Failing to follow up: predicting patients that will "no-show" for medically advised imaging following endourologic stone surgery.

Abstract

In our study, evaluating characteristics associated with missed follow up after stent removal for PCNL and URS, possession of GAI was the only factor associated with non-compliance. Urologists should be aware that persons with GAI may be at increased risk of missed follow up and should use this information to target interventions to improve compliance.
