| Popis: | BACKGROUND The morbidity and mortality associated with colorectal resections are responsible for significant healthcare use. Identification of efficiencies is vital for decreasing healthcare cost in a resource-limited system. OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to characterize the short-term cost associated with all colon and rectal resections. DESIGN This was a population-based, retrospective administrative analysis. SETTINGS This analysis was composed of all colon and rectal resections with anastomosis in Canada (excluding Quebec) between 2008 and 2015. PATIENTS A total of 108,304 patients ≥18 years of age who underwent colon and/or rectal resections with anastomosis were included. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Total short-term inpatient cost for the index admission and the incremental cost of each comorbidity and complication (in 2014 Canadian dollars) were measured. Cost predictors were modeled using hierarchical linear regression and Monte Carlo Markov Chain estimation. RESULTS Multivariable regression demonstrated that the adjusted average cost of a 50-year-old man undergoing open colon resection for benign disease with no comorbidities or complications was $9270 ((95% CI, $7146-$11,624; p = |
