Table 5 Incidence rate ratio between periods with a finale and periods without match, before, during and after the schedule of the tennis match

From: Admission rates in emergency departments in Geneva during tennis broadcasting: a retrospective study

 

IRR between periods with a finale and without tennis match

Before (3 h)

During match

After (3 h)

All admissions a

0.92 (0.83 to 1.03), p = 0.16

0.84 (0.73 to 0.97), p = 0.017

0.89 (0.73 to 1.09), p = 0.26

Emergency degree a

 1, 2 or 3

0.93 (0.84 to 1.03), p = 0.18

0.85 (0.71 to 1.01), p = 0.06

0.88 (0.71 to 1.08), p = 0.22

 4

0.90 (0.56 to 1.44), p = 0.66

0.86 (0.60 to 1.23), p = 0.40

0.99 (0.65 to 1.50), p = 0.95

Reason of attendanceb

 Traumatology

1.24 (1.01 to 1.53), p = 0.044

no convergence c

0.87 (0.60 to 1.27), p = 0.48

 Non traumatology

0.90 (0.79 to 1.01), p = 0.08

0.87 (0.71 to 1.07), p = 0.18

1.20 (0.93 to 1.55), p = 0.15

  1. a: Incidence rate ratio adjusted for center
  2. b: HUG only
  3. c: No convergence of the regression model therefore the IRR could not be estimated
