Popis: | Summary Background Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is one of the most common out-patient diagnoses in primary care and gastroenterology. There are limited data on the rate and costs associated with in-patient discharges for IBS. Aim To estimate the incidence and costs of hospital discharges for IBS in the United States. Methods We analysed the National Inpatient Sample database for all subjects in which IBS (ICD-9 code: 564.1) was the principal discharge diagnosis from 1997 to 2010. The National Inpatient Sample contains data from approximately 8 million hospital stays each year. Our findings reflected patient and hospital characteristics like geographical region and bed size. Results In 1997, there were 11 433 patients with a principal discharge diagnosis of IBS as compared to 12 842 in 2010 (P > 0.9, GoF test). The mean length of stay for IBS also remained the same between 1997 and 2010 at 3.7 ± 0.1 days. However, during this period, the mean hospital charges per hospitalization increased by 207.8% from $6873 ± 198 in 1997 to $21 153 ± 598 in 2010 (P |
