Cox's proportional hazard model for time to first emergency hospitalisation across all six deprivation categories
| Cardiac emergency admissions relative risk (95% CI) | Total emergency admissions relative risk (95% CI) | ||
| Unadjusted | 1.11 (1.004 to 1.225) | 1.007 (0.933 to 1.008) | |
| p = 0.041 | p = 0.851 | ||
| Adjusted for age, sex | 1.11 (1.002 to 1.224) | 1.013 (0.937 to 1.096) | |
| p = 0.046 | p = 0.740 | ||
Deprivation was the only significant factor in the Cox's model. Neither age, sex, diuretic adherence nor diuretic dose were significant in this time to first hospitalisation analysis.
