Recommendations summaries



Sugested figure


I like this figure because it shows that the non-frail people are receiving less recommendations, likely because they aren’t in need of as many recommendations. However, it also shows that the distributions/medians of the pre/mild group and the moderate/severe groups are relatively similar (if anything the pre/mild group has higher median). The takeaway would be that PPC can lead to recommendations for more than just people who are in serious need of them. So this figure summarizes the frailty/recommendations relationship while also making our other 2 points in a way: that frailty should be correlated with the number of recommendations to some extent but also that PPC can lead to recommendations to everyone, regardless of frailty.
