Factores asociados con el uso y adecuación de la hospitalización en personas mayores de 64 años

Abstract: Algunas características sociales, médicas o funcionales se asocian a mayor consumo de recursos sanitarios, sin que esto signifique un uso inapropiado de éstos.

“…In that study as well as in the majority of studies [ 29 ], no significant differences were found by sex. However, some studies in Spain have reported sex inequalities in the provision of hospital care that favor men [ 14 – 16 , 30 , 31 ], which highlights important implications for healthcare organizations. It is reasonable to assume that had diagnosis codes related to childbirth been included in this study, we would likely have found a slight predominance of HS use by women; such a finding would coincide with the results of the hospital register [ 32 ] as well as with recent data from cross-sectional studies, the Spanish Health Survey [ 26 ], and the Region of Valencia Health Survey [ 25 ].…”

“…A previous study conducted in the Region of Valencia (RV) linked the 2005 Region of Valencia Health Survey (RVHS2005) cohort to the RV mortality register; after 4 years of monitoring, it was found that SRH acted as a predictor of mortality in the general population for both men and women, and also mediated between socioeconomic, demographic, and health conditions, and mortality [ 18 ]. At national level, however, few studies in Spain [ 16 , 19 ] have attempted to link a cohort to information derived from the Minimum Basic Hospital Data Set (MBDS) so as to establish profiles on the use of HS and hospitalization outcomes.…”

“…La edad 12 y el diagnóstico 5,21 , que en otros estudios se asocian a la inadecuación del ingreso, no se asocian en éste, aunque hay otros estudios en los que tampoco se asocia la edad 13,22 a la hospitalización inadecuada. Esta disparidad podría estar relacionada con la metodología del estudio (muestreo), los grupos de pacientes incluidos o las clasifica-Rev Esp Salud Pública 2005, Vol.…”

“…Los ingresos hospitalarios previos y la comorbilidad (más de una patología crónica) podrían estar relacionados probablemente con la mayor intensidad del tratamiento de estos pacientes (detectada por el AEP) aunque en otros estudios estos factores no se asocian a la hospitalización inadecuada 13 .…”
