What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. The Percentage of Men Given a Drug Prescription for Their Urinary Symptoms, as Recorded in Their Medical Records

    The percentage of men who have been given at least one prescription medication for urinary symptoms.

    This included any medications prescribed by PCP for urinary symptoms according to medical records within 12 months prior to telephone survey as described below:

    1. Medications already prescribed by PCP for urinary symptoms prior to the 1st visit/contact for urinary symptoms within 12 months prior to telephone survey.
    2. Medications newly prescribed by PCP upon visit(s)/contact(s) for urinary symptoms within 12 months prior to telephone survey (i.e., medications prescribed for urinary symptoms on or after the 1st visit/contact).

    95% CI was calculated using clopper-pearson estimation method based on the exact binomial distribution.

    Measured: 12 months
