| Core Tip |
Understanding recent temporal trends of cirrhosis-associated conditions is an important aspect of developing strategies to reduce health care cost. Our study showed increasing trends of hospital discharges related to cirrhosis-associated conditions despite the decreasing trends for total hospital discharges across the nation. Importantly, hepatic coma associated with viral hepatitis showed rapid increase in discharge volume in comparison to hepatic coma not associated with viral hepatitis. After adjusting for inflation, cirrhosis associated conditions showed disproportionately greater increase in aggregate cost compare to national trends. This suggests that prevention of hospitalizations secondary to cirrhosis-associated conditions likely reduces overall health care cost. |
