简介
The increase in the number of carotid artery stenting (CAS) procedures over the last decade has necessitated critical appraisal of procedural outcomes and patterns of utilization including cost analysis. The main objectives of our study were to evaluate the postprocedural mortality and complications after CAS and the patterns of resource utilization in terms of length of stay (LOS) and cost of hospitalization. We queried the Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project's Nationwide Inpatient Sample from 2006 to 2010 using the International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision, procedure code of 00.63 for CAS. Hierarchical mixed-effects models were generated to identify the independent multivariate predictors of in-hospital mortality, procedural complications, LOS, and cost of hospitalization. A total of 13,564 CAS procedures (weighted n = 67,344) were analyzed. The overall postprocedural mortality was low at 0.5 …
