Clinic absenteeism rate was calculated, and socio-demographic profile was described. Reasons for absenteeism, treatment protocol and most used drugs were also identified.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This work analyzed data from 69 patients, the majority above 60 years old. Approximately 60% were male, 33.3% had little to no education and 63.8% lived outside the center city. Absenteeism average monthly rate was 1.73% for adults and 0.87% for children. The most related non-attendance reasons were patient feeling too ill to attend their chemotherapy session, failure to remember the cycle day and lack of means of transportation. Most prevalent neoplasms were from the digestive tract (46%). Fluorouracil, irinotecan, oxaliplatin and gemcitabine were the most discarded drugs due to absenteeism.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Older patients and the ones residing far away from the Center tend to miss the scheduled chemotherapy cycles. However, most reasons for absenteeism could be avoided by confirmation calls or text messages. These procedures implementation could lead to a lower absenteeism rate and less resource waste.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1177\/10781552241264288","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,7,23]],"date-time":"2024-07-23T17:09:29Z","timestamp":1721754569000},"page":"871-877","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Determinants of clinic absenteeism in a chemotherapy service of a cancer center located at Rio de Janeiro, Brazil"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"31","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6827-7183","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Amanda Oliveira","family":"Serra-Campos","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"National Cancer Institute (INCA)"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Filipe dos Santos","family":"Soares","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"National Cancer Institute (INCA)"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5672-8602","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Elizangela Domiciano Garcia","family":"Barreto","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"National Cancer Institute (INCA)"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9648-0891","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Erika da Silva","family":"Magliano","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"National Cancer Institute (INCA)"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,7,23]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_2_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1590\/0102-311X00158612"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_3_2","first-page":"19","article-title":"Absente\u00edsmo em atendimento ambulatorial de especialidades no estado de S\u00e3o Paulo","volume":"13","author":"Bittar OJNV","year":"2016","unstructured":"Bittar OJNV, Magalh\u00e3es A, Martines CM, et al.
