- Abstract
Within the field of pediatric neurosurgery, insurance status has been shown to be associated with surgical delay, longer time to referral, and longer hospitalization in epilepsy treatment, myelomeningocele repair, and spasticity surgery.1,2 The aim of this study was to investigate the association of insurance status with inpatient adverse events (AEs), length of stay (LOS), and costs for newborns diagnosed with intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH). A retrospective cohort study was performed using the 2016–2019 National Inpatient Sample database. Patients with a primary diagnosis of intraventricular hemorrhage were identified using ICD-10-CM diagnostic and procedural codes. Patients were categorized based on insurance status: Medicaid or Private Insurance (PI). Multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to identify the impact of insurance status on extended LOS (defined as >75th percentile of LOS) and exorbitant cost (defined as >75th percentile of cost). Demographics differed significantly between groups, with the majority of newborns in the PI cohort being White (Medicaid: 35.8% vs. PI: 60.3%, P < 0.001) and the majority of Medicaid patients being in the 0–25th quartile of household income (Medicaid: 40.9% vs. PI: 12.9%, P < 0.001). While insurance status was not independently associated with increased odds of extended LOS or exorbitant cost, Medicaid patients had a greater mean LOS and total cost of admission than PI patients. Demographic characteristics, mean LOS, and mean total cost differed significantly between Medicaid and PI patients, indicating potential disparities based on insurance status. However, insurance status was not independently associated with increased healthcare utilization, necessitating further research in this area of study. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of racial disparities on surgical outcomes for cervical spondylotic myelopathy (CSM). Adult patients undergoing anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) or posterior cervical decompression and fusion (PCDF) for CSM were identified from the 2016 to 019 National Inpatient Sample Database using the International Classification of Diseases codes. Patients were categorized based on approach (ACDF or PCDF) and race/ethnicity (White, Black, Hispanic). Patient demographics, comorbidities, operative characteristics, adverse events, and health care resource utilization were assessed. Multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to identify independent predictors of extended length of stay (LOS), nonroutine discharge (NRD), and exorbitant costs. A total of 46,500 patients were identified, of which 36,015 (77.5%) were White, 7465 (16.0%) were Black, and 3020 (6.5%) were Hispanic. Black and Hispanic patients had a greater comorbidity burden compared to White patients (P = 0.001) and a greater incidence of any postoperative complication (P = 0.001). Healthcare resource utilization were greater in the PCDF cohort than the ACDF cohort and greater in Black and Hispanic patients compared to White patients (P < 0.001). Black and Hispanic patient race were significantly associated with extended hospital LOS ([Black] odds ratio [OR]: 2.24, P < 0.001; [Hispanic] OR: 1.64, P < 0.001) and NRD ([Black] OR: 2.33, P < 0.001; [Hispanic] OR: 1.49, P = 0.016). Among patients who underwent PCDF, Black race was independently associated with extended hospital LOS ([Black] OR: 1.77, P < 0.001; [Hispanic] OR: 1.47, P = 0.167) and NRD ([Black] OR: 1.82, P < 0.001; [Hispanic] OR: 1.38, P = 0.052). Our study suggests that patient race may influence patient outcomes and healthcare resource utilization following ACDF or PCDF for CSM. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The rise of spinal surgery for ankylosing spondylitis (AS) necessitates balancing health care costs with quality patient care. Frailty has been independently associated with adverse outcomes and increased costs. This study investigates whether frailty is an independent predictor of poor outcomes after elective surgery for AS. Using the National Inpatient Sample (NIS) database, a retrospective study was conducted on adult patients with AS who underwent posterior spinal fusion for fracture between 2016 and 2019. Each patient was assigned a modified frailty index (mFI) score and categorized as prefrail (mFI = 0 or 1), moderately frail (mFI = 2), and highly frail (mFI≥3). Multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to identify independent predictors of extended length of stay, non-routine discharge (NRD), and exorbitant admission costs. Of the 1910 patients, 35.3% were prefrail, 31.2% moderately frail, and 33.5% highly frail. Age was significantly different across groups (P < 0.001), and frailty was associated with increased comorbidities (P < 0.001). Mean length of stay (P = 0.007), NRD rate (P < 0.001), and mean cost of admission (P = 0.002) all significantly increased with increasing frailty. However, frailty was not an independent predictor of extended hospital stay, NRD, or higher costs on multivariate analysis. Instead, predictors included multiple adverse events, number of comorbidities, and race. While frailty in patients with AS is associated with older age, greater comorbidities, and increased adverse events, it was not an independent predictor of extended hospital stay, NRD, or higher hospital costs. Further research is required to understand the full impact of frailty on surgical outcomes and develop effective interventions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Frailty has been shown to affect patient outcomes after medical and surgical interventions. The Hospital Frailty Risk Score (HFRS) is a growing metric used to assess patient frailty using International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision codes. The goal of this study was to investigate the impact of frailty, assessed by HFRS, on health care resource utilization and outcomes in patients undergoing surgery for spinal meningiomas. A retrospective cohort study was performed using the 2016–2019 National Inpatient Sample database. Adult patients with benign or malignant spinal meningiomas, identified using International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, Clinical Modification codes, were stratified by HFRS: low frailty (HFRS <5) and intermediate-high frailty (HFRS ≥5). Patient demographics, hospital characteristics, comorbidities, procedural variables, adverse events, length of stay (LOS), discharge disposition, and cost of admission were assessed. Multivariate regression analysis was used to identify predictors of increased LOS, discharge disposition, and cost. Of the 3345 patients, 530 (15.8%) had intermediate-high frailty. The intermediate-high cohort was significantly older (P < 0.001). More patients in the intermediate-high cohort had ≥3 comorbidities (P < 0.001). In addition, a greater proportion of patients in the intermediate-high cohort experienced ≥1 perioperative adverse events (P < 0.001). Intermediate-high patients experienced greater mean LOS (P < 0.001) and accrued greater costs (P < 0.001). A greater proportion of intermediate-high patients had nonroutine discharges (P < 0.001). On multivariate analysis, increased HFRS (≥5) was independently associated with extended LOS (adjusted odds ratio [aOR], 3.04; P < 0.001), nonroutine discharge (aOR, 1.98; P = 0.006), and increased costs (aOR, 2.39; P = 0.004). Frailty may be associated with increased health care resource utilization in patients undergoing surgery for spinal meningiomas. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
