Researchers analyzed data from the National Inpatient Sample involving sex‐pooled and sex‐specific trends in hypertensive crisis hospitalization and case fatality rates over serial time periods: 2002 to 2006, 2007 to 2011, and 2012 to 2014.
Three key findings:
- There were more than 918,000 hospitalizations and nearly 4,400 in-hospital deaths related to hypertensive crises nationwide.
- Hypertensive crises accounted for 0.17 percent of all hospital admissions for men in 2002 and 0.39 percent in 2014.
- Hypertensive crises accounted for 0.16 percent of hospitalizations for women in 2002 and 0.34 percent in 2014.
At the Becker's 23rd Annual Spine, Orthopedic and Pain Management-Driven ASC + The Future of Spine Conference, taking place June 11-13 in Chicago, spine surgeons, orthopedic leaders and ASC executives will come together to explore minimally invasive techniques, ASC growth strategies and innovations shaping the future of outpatient spine care.
