Association between socioeconomic disadvantage and low-value care in acute care hospitals in Japan
BACKGROUND: Low-value care offers little clinical benefit and contributes to inefficient healthcare utilization. Although socioeconomic disparities in healthcare access are well documented, data on low-value care among disadvantaged inpatients remain limited. OBJECTIVE: To examine the association between neighborhood-level socioeconomic status (SES) and the proportion of low-value care services in Japanese inpatient settings using the area depriv…
Heat-related impacts on all-cause emergency hospitalisation differ by area deprivation and urbanicity
BACKGROUND: Climate-related health impacts have been a global public health concern. Identifying vulnerable populations is critical in implementing adaptation strategies. This study aimed to examine how heat-related impacts on all-cause emergency hospitalisations differ by area deprivation and urbanicity. METHODS: All-cause emergency hospitalisations were identified in the Japanese nationwide administrative database during the warm season between…
Increase in avoidable hospital admissions after the Great East Japan Earthquake
BACKGROUND: The Great East Japan Earthquake and subsequent tsunami and nuclear disaster on 11 March 2011 had a short-term influence on the increase in emergency department visits and hospital admissions due to various diseases. However, it remains unclear whether the earthquake and tsunami disaster affected the long-term health conditions of people in the affected areas. METHODS: Using a national inpatient database in Japan, we investigated peopl…
Impact of Regional Clinical Pathways on the Length of Stay in Hospital Among Stroke Patients in Japan
BACKGROUND: Clinical pathways are care plans used by health providers to describe essential steps in the care of patients with specific medical conditions. Clinical implementation of the regional clinical pathways in Japan has spread, and the 2008 fee schedule included a new "regional inter-provider care planning fee" for stroke. However, no evidence regarding the efficacy of the regional clinical pathways for stroke has appeared. OBJECTIVES: We …
Updating and Validating the Charlson Comorbidity Index and Score for Risk Adjustment in Hospital Discharge Abstracts Using Data From 6 Countries
With advances in the effectiveness of treatment and disease management, the contribution of chronic comorbid diseases (comorbidities) found within the Charlson comorbidity index to mortality is likely to have changed since development of the index in 1984. The authors reevaluated the Charlson index and reassigned weights to each condition by identifying and following patients to observe mortality within 1 year after hospital discharge. They appli…
Cross-National Comparative Performance of Three Versions of the ICD-10 Charlson Index
OBJECTIVE: The Charlson comorbidity index has been widely used for risk adjustment in outcome studies using administrative health data. Recently, 3 International Statistical Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision (ICD-10) translations have been published for the Charlson comorbidities. This study was conducted to compare the predictive performance of these versions (the Halfon, Sundararajan, and Quan versions) of the ICD-10 coding algorithms …
