Overview

Analysis reveals 12.9% of AML hospitalizations utilized palliative care, suggesting further equity in access is needed.

  • Among 67,810 hospitalizations for AML in 2022, significant demographic disparities affected palliative care use.
  • Data analysis leveraged the HCUP National Inpatient Sample and included comparisons of patient and hospital characteristics.
  • These findings highlight the need for better access to palliative care for AML patients, especially among diverse demographics.
