Avoidable Hospitalizations in Persons with Dementia: a Population-Wide Descriptive Study (2000-2015).
Background: Whether avoidable hospitalizations in community-dwelling persons with dementia have decreased during primary care reforms is unknown.
Methods: We described the prevalence and trends in avoidable hospitalizations in population-based repeated yearly cohorts of 192,144 community-dwelling persons with incident dementia (Quebec, 2000-2015) in the context of a province-wide primary care reform, using the provincial health administrative database.
Results: Trends in both types of Ambulatory Care Sensitive Condition (ACSC) hospitalization (general and older population) and 30-day readmission rates remained constant with average rates per 100 person-years: 20.5 (19.9-21.1), 31.7 (31.0-32.4), 20.6 (20.1-21.2), respectively. Rates of delayed hospital discharge (i.e., alternate level of care (ALC) hospitalizations) decreased from 23.8 (21.1-26.9) to 17.9 (16.1-20.1) (relative change -24.6%).
Conclusions: These figures shed light on the importance of the phenomenon, its lack of improvement for most outcomes over the years, and the need to develop evidence-based policies to prevent avoidable hospitalizations in this vulnerable population.
期刊介绍:
The Canadian Geriatrics Journal (CGJ) is a peer-reviewed publication that is a home for innovative aging research of a high quality aimed at improving the health and the care provided to older persons residing in Canada and outside our borders. While we gratefully accept submissions from researchers outside our country, we are committed to encouraging aging research by Canadians. The CGJ is targeted to family physicians with training or an interest in the care of older persons, specialists in geriatric medicine, geriatric psychiatrists, and members of other health disciplines with a focus on gerontology.
