CI, confidence interval; ED, emergency department.

The pretreatment phase was 12 months prior to index date, treatment phase was 12 months beginning on the index date; posttreatment phase lasted from the end of the treatment phase until the end of study follow-up or until the beginning of the end-of-life phase (if applicable), but costs were expressed as 12 months costs for comparability across phases; end-of-life phase was the 12 months before death (if applicable). All estimates are in 2017 Canadian dollars. Bold denotes p-value of <0.05.
