Identifying social determinants of health is a key step in understanding the factors that influence adherence to follow-up after operation. This study examines socioeconomic associations with adherence after kidney stone procedure in children and evaluates whether enrollment in a multi-center clinical incentivized trial was associated with adherence. We hypothesize that those who lived farther from our hospital, lived in areas of higher deprivation, or were not enrolled in the trial were less likely to follow-up.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      We conducted a retrospective review of patients under 18 years old who underwent kidney stone operation from August 2019 to July 2023. Demographics, medical history, Area Deprivation Index (ADI) scores, and surgical details were analyzed. The primary outcome was follow-up clinic attendance within 16 weeks postoperation. ADI was calculated using patient home address to rank against other neighborhoods in the United States. Higher ADI score indicates more socioeconomic disadvantage.
