Abstract:
|
We examined the burden of infectious disease hospitalizations (IDH) in New York City (NYC) during 2001–2014 with a hospital discharge dataset. Annual crude and age-adjusted hospitalization rates and the proportion of in-hospital death were calculated for IDH. The normal approximation method was used to calculate 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for age-adjusted hospitalization rates. Poisson model was applied to estimate the longitudinal trend of hospitalization rates. Lower respiratory tract and sepsis were identified as the sites of infection with the highest mean annual age-adjusted hospitalization rates during 2001–2014 (329.3 [95% CI: 328.3–330.4] and 259.3 [95% CI: 258.4–260.3] per 100,000 population, respectively). The mean annual age-adjusted hospitalization rates per 100,000 population for HIV decreased from 123.1 (95% CI: 121.7–124.5) to 40.0 (95% CI: 39.2–40.7) and for tuberculosis from 10.2 (95% CI: 9.8–10.6) to 4.6 (95% CI: 4.4–4.9) from 2001–2003 to 2012–2014. Lower respiratory tract infections and sepsis are important causes of IDH in NYC, and hospitalizations for HIV and tuberculosis appear to be declining.
