1
Previous database research has approximated COPD severity using demographics and healthcare utilization.
2
Secondary outcomes were healthcare utilization, days unable to pursue usual activities and self-rated improvement.
3
Candidate variables included physician and patient demographics, baseline clinical conditions, and healthcare utilization metrics.
4
Objective: To determine the incidence, healthcare utilization, and costs in older adults with gout.
5
Background and objective: Bronchiolitis is a common disease in early childhood with increasing healthcare utilization.
6
Costs are calculated including the costs of the pre-treatment intervention, productivity losses, and healthcare utilization.
7
Patient and healthcare utilization factors associated with ED were examined using a logistic regression model.
8
Data on healthcare utilization were collected for a total of 84 adults meeting DSM-IV criteria.
9
However, little is known about how healthcare utilization and cost change after ablation in this population.
10
Conclusions: This study provided evidence that certain patient characteristics and healthcare utilization are predictive of readmission.
11
Conclusions: Patients with LVAD have double risk of pancreatitis, worse clinical outcomes, and increased healthcare utilization.
12
Societal cost data will be collected during interviews, using healthcare utilization diaries, and from day-care centres.
13
The secondary outcomes are health-related quality of life, psychological and social functioning, healthcare utilization and institutionalization.
14
Conclusions: Increased FCR has been associated with hypervigilance among survivors and may lead to increased healthcare utilization.
15
We sought to determine healthcare utilization and cost patterns among patients with AF and HF undergoing ablation.
16
Further study is needed to understand implications of this strategy on healthcare utilization, long-term patient outcomes, and cost.
