Background In 2018, the weighted prevalence rate of hypertension among adults aged ≥18 years was 27.5%. Rural areas demonstrated a faster increase in the prevalence rate of hypertension, but lower awareness rate, treatment rate and control rate of hypertension compared with urban areas. Hypertension is the primary risk factor for cardiovascular diseases, and also a major contributor to the disease burden in the population. Understanding the costs of hospitalizations due to hypertension and related comorbidities and complications in rural areas can provide data support for the development of hypertension management and containment strategies in counties. Objective To analyze the costs of hospitalizations due to hypertension and related comorbidities and complications in county-level healthcare institutions. Methods This study selected inpatients with a diagnosis of hypertension via checking the home page of medical records in two county-level hospitals (people's hospital and TCM hospital) of a poverty-stricken county in Henan Province from 2017 to 2019. Patients' clinical information was collected from the medical records, and their healthcare costs were collected from the municipal and county medical insurance information systems. Results A total of 36 565 hospitalizations related information was obtained. During the period, these county-level healthcare institutions had 139 169 hospitalizations in total, 36 565 of them (26.27%) were due to hypertension and related comorbidities and complications. Age, occupational type, marital status, and payment method differed significantly across inpatients due to hypertension and related comorbidities and complications (P0.05). Moreover, the average hospitalization cost, treatment cost, drug cost and examination cost due to hypertension and related comorbidities and complications differed significantly by the severity of disease during the period (P |
