Overview

Retrospective cohort study shows higher mortality and complications in transferred AML patients, indicating urgent care needs.

Key Points

  • To compare inpatient outcomes in AML patients admitted directly versus those transferred from other hospitals.
  • Weighted retrospective cohort study using the National Inpatient Sample from 2016 to 2022
  • Analyzed adult hospitalizations with acute myeloid leukemia
  • Stratified patients by admission type and examined various outcomes
  • Transferred AML patients had higher in-hospital mortality (15.3% vs. 7.4%, p < 0.001)
  • Longer length of stay (mean LOS: 16.87 vs. 11.05 days, p < 0.001)
  • Increased total hospital charges ($255,690 vs. $166,775, p < 0.001)
