Notes:

  1. an absconder or missing patient is not a direct equivalent of ‘reported missing’ as it includes issues such as leaving without signing a discharge against medical advice form, or failing to return from agreed leave on time, rather than consisting solely of reports of patients who abscond or who are reported missing to the police.
  2. the data also includes reports of patients who are missing from a follow-up, for instance, those who should have been asked to return to a clinic for review but whose call back for a further appointment has been missed.
