A further limitation of the documentation is the inadequate description of the scoring method.
Since there is no systematic documentation of ADEs in medical records, partly due to limitations of the documentation systems [ 59, 60], review of such records lacks a standardized and reliable method to search for ADEs [ 61].
A limitation of the study documentation of inpatient hospitalisation is that hospital specialisation was not recorded.
Another potential limitation is the reliability of documentation of complications in the participants' medical records.
