Abstract:
|
We investigated the association between opioid use and endocarditis related to unsafe drug injection practices in New York City (NYC) hospitalization. We analyzed a hospital discharge dataset for NYC residents aged ?18 years during 2001–2016. Crude endocarditis hospitalization rate was calculated and stratified by opioid use. Poisson regression was performed to assess temporal trends of endocarditis hospitalization rates from 2001 to 2016. Log-binomial model was performed to evaluate the relative risk (RR) of endocarditis, with opioid use as exposure. During 2001–2016, crude rate of endocarditis hospitalizations and opioid use significantly decreased from 2001 to 2016, with an average annual percent decrement of 0.6%. However, there was an increased risk of hospitalization for endocarditis (RR: 2.5 [95% CI: 2.4–2.6]) among opioid users compared with non-opioid users, adjusted by age, sex, race and borough in NYC hospitalization. Despite of the evidence in this study showing the decreased trend of endocarditis hospitalization rate for opioid users during 2001–2016 in NYC hospitalization, opioid use is associated with increased risk of endocarditis due to unsafe injection behaviors.
