Abstract:
Objective To compare the average hospitalization costs in cerebral infarction patients at different ages and analyze the causes.Methods Data of hospitalization expenses in cerebral infarction patients at different ages at our hospital from June 2013 to May 2018 were collected and analyzed by using SPSS18.0 software.The lengths of hospital stay and hospitalization costs were compared among patients at different ages.Results The average lengths of hospital stay were (11.5 ±6.2) d,(11.6±6.5) d and (12.5±9.4) d in the middle-aged,older age and advanced-age groups respectively(F=23.61,P =0.00).The hospitalization expenses were (11971.50± 12610.40) yuan,(12510.22±14075.46) yuan and (14765.59±19907.66) yuan and the medicine costs were (5401.66 ±5688.98) yuan,(5595.21±6152.13) yuan and (7184.69±9696.47) yuan in the middle-aged,older age and advanced-age groups respectively (F =34.12 and 73.52,P =0.00).The average drug proportion was 45.12％,44.73 ％ and 48.65 ％ in the middle-aged,older age and advanced-age groups respectively(x2 =19.03,P =-0.00).Hospitalization costs,drug costs and length of hospital stay were increased with aging.Conclusions Age significantly affects the total hospitalization costs and drug costs in hospitalized patients with cerebral infarction.Hospitalization expenses and drug charges are increased along with aging in cerebral infarction patients aged 45 years and older.
