520 $a The treatment needs, treatment schedules, clinic group, entry point, and socioeconomic status are all variables that affect patient compliance. This study can be extended to private dental practices for comparison purposes.
520 $a The purpose of this study is to examine standards of care in the Dental School of the University of Louisville. The central theme is to consider issues of compliance on behalf of the patients and how to define it in an unbiased way. We will examine the relationship of visit intervals, treatment needs, and patient compliance.
520 $a With the use of SAS 9.1.3 software, data mining techniques such as clustering, kernel density, linear models and mixed models estimation will be used to define and analyze compliance. Statistical methods such as text mining were used to examine the severity of patient conditions. Confidence interval estimation and bootstrapping were explored to assist with the allocation of patients to compliance levels. Patients who were within the 95% confidence interval of the median for visit intervals at least 80% of the time were defined as fully compliant, with decreasing levels of compliance as the percentage decreases to 60%, 40%, 20% and 0%.
520 $a Approximately 82% of the patient population was classified as least compliant, and in the least compliant group, approximately 60% are in the two most severe condition categories with regards to their dental condition. The general trend indicates that patients with severe dental conditions tend not to be compliant, whereas patients that suffer from not so severe conditions tend to be more compliant.
