  • Study on the relationship between the proportion of medical expenses and the rationality of the hospitalization expense structure in chronic heart failure

    ObjectiveTo explore the relationship between the proportion of hospitalization expenses and the rationality of expense structure in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF), providing reference for early warning of unreasonable hospitalization expense structure and reasonable control of patients’ hospitalization expenses.MethodsPatients with CHF between 2020 and 2023 in Shanghai Pudong New Area Guangming Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine were used as the study data. Percentile algorithm was used to judge the rationality of the hospitalization expense structure. Multivariate logistic regression model was used to analyze the correlation between the proportion and rationality of expense structure. Restricted cubic spline model was to analyze the threshold response relationship. ResultsA total of 762 patients were included. The medicine expenses remained the primary component of hospitalization expenses for patients with CHF, and combined expenses of examination and laboratory tests exceeded 80% of the total hospitalization expenses. The incidence of unreasonable hospitalization expense structure in patients with CHF was about 10%. The proportion of traditional Chinese medicine, western medicine, examination and laboratory tests, age, admission mode and clinical pathway were the influencing factors of unreasonable hospitalization expense structure in patients with CHF. After coordinating the relevant variables, when the proportion of examination and laboratory tests was <35%, the risk of unreasonable hospitalization expense structure decreased with the increase of the proportion [odds ratio=0.887, 95% confidence interval (0.805, 0.977), P<0.01]. While the proportion of western medicine expenses was >30%, the proportion of traditional Chinese medicine expenses was >13%, and the proportion of examination and laboratory tests was>35%, the risk of unreasonable hospitalization expense structure increased with the increase of proportion (P<0.01). ConclusionsThere is a correlation between the expense proportion of medicine, examination and laboratory tests and unreasonable hospitalization expense structure. The consumptive expenses should be reasonably controlled.

  • A real-world study of DL-3-n-butylphthalide in preventing early neurological deterioration after cerebral infarction

    Objective To explore the correlation between DL-3-n-butylphthalide (NBP) and early neurological deterioration (END) after cerebral infarction in real-world study. Methods A multicenter registry observational study was conducted, enrolling patients with acute cerebral infarction within 72 h of onset from five hospitals in Deyang from March 31st, 2019, to July 31st, 2021. The patients were divided into two groups based on the treatment regimen, whether they received NBP in addition to standard therapy or not. The primary endpoint was END after cerebral infarction, and the secondary endpoint was unfavorable outcome (defined as modified Rankin Scale score of 3 to 6) 90 d after onset. Results A total of 314 patients with cerebral infarction were included in the study, among whom, 126 received standard therapy without NBP treatment (standard treatment group) and 188 received NBP in addition to standard therapy (NBP treatment group). A total of 69 cases occurred END within 10 d after admission. In the NBP treatment group, 32 cases (17.0%) had END within 10 d after admission, while in the standard treatment group, 37 cases (29.4%) occurred END, and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant (P=0.010). Logistic regression analyses showed that the influencing factors related to END included the serum neurofilament light chain level on admission [odds ratio (OR)=1.020, 95% confidence interval (CI) (1.004, 1.035), P=0.013], NBP treatment [OR=0.449, 95%CI (0.253, 0.797), P=0.006], and dual antiplatelet therapy [OR=0.373, 95%CI (0.196, 0.710), P=0.003], and the influencing factors for poor neurological functional prognosis in patients with cerebral infarction included age [OR=1.063, 95%CI (1.024, 1.103), P=0.002], National Institute of Health Stroke Scale score on admission [OR=1.532, 95%CI (1.313, 1.787), P<0.001], NBP treatment [OR=0.375, 95%CI (0.177, 0.794), P=0.010], and END [OR=7.450, 95%CI (3.294, 16.852), P<0.001]. Conclusion The results of our study provide the initial evidence that NBP treatment reduces the occurrence of END, and improves the neurological functional prognosis 90 d after onset in the real world.
