“…Many diseases, which probably represent comorbidities, either appeared protective or had little impact on in-hospital death [23,24]. One study found that the index is predictive of 1-year in-hospital mortality, but not length of stay at hospital [25]. Our data, however, showed that the Charlson Index was a significant predictor for both hospital death and > 7 days of hospital stay in hospitalized COPD patients.…”

“…We also evaluated comorbidity with the Deyo modification of the Charlson comorbidity index [20]. Briefly, we ascertained the presence of 17 comorbid conditions and then weighted them according to the original report by Charlson [21]. An elevated Charlson comorbidity index has been shown to correlate with mortality [21].…”

This study has been made on the patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) in Atatürk Chest Disease Hospital in order to put forth the factors prolonging the length of stay, decreasing the discharge time, preventing the nonessential staying and contributing to servicing more patients with the existing available conditions of the hospital. During the research, the files, service protocol books and outlet summaries of 113 patients staying in Non Tuberculosis (TB) clinics between 1-31 January 2001 were examined. It was researched that how the variables such as age, staying service, sex, domicile, staying status, educational level, number of COPD diagnosis had before, additional diseases, COPD age, complication and reasons for complication, effected the length of stay. According to the results of the research, there are meaningful relations between the average length of stay and educational level, number of COPD diagnosis, additional diseases, COPD age, existence of complication and reasons for complication. On the other hand, staying service, age of the patient, sex, domicile, staying status are not related meaningfully with the average length of stay statistically.

Araştırmada, Atatürk Göğüs Hastalıkları Hastanesi Non TB kliniklerinde 1-31 Ocak 2001 tarihleri arasında KOAH tanısı ile yatan 113 vakanın hasta dosyaları, servis protokol defterleri ve hasta çıkış özetleri incelenmiştir. Araştırmada hastalara ait yaş, yatılan servis, cinsiyet, ikamet yeri, yatış statüsü, eğitim durumu, KOAH tanısıyla hastaneye yatış sayısı, ek hastalık durumu, KOAH yaşı, komplikasyon ve komplikasyon nedenleri gibi değişken-lerin yatış sürelerini nasıl etkilediği incelenmiştir. Araştırma sonuçlarına göre öğrenim düzeyi, KOAH tanısıyla hastaneye yatış sayısı, ek hastalık bulunma durumu, KOAH yaşı, komplikasyon bulunma durumu ve komplikasyon nedenleri ile ortalama yatış süresi arasında istatiksel açıdan anlamlı ilişki bulunmuştur. Hastanın yattığı servis, yaş, cinsiyet, ikamet yeri, yatış statüsü ile yatış süresi arasında istatiksel açıdan anlamlı ilişki bulunmamıştır.A An na ah ht ta ar r K Ke el li im me el le er r: : Kronik Obstrüktif Akciğer Hast...
