SHM Converge 2023
Background: Venous thromboembolism, in particular, pulmonary embolism (PE), is a significant contributor to morbidity and mortality associated with COVID-19. In comparison to influenza, COVID-19 leads to a more pronounced hypercoagulable state secondary to endotheliopathy and hyperinflammatory state which results in the formation of venous and arterial thrombosis. Based on prior literature, patients with COVID-19 have […]

SHM Converge 2023
Background: COVID-19 pandemic was vital in modifying healthcare delivery systems. This infection has led to variable composite outcomes in patients who have cardiovascular diseases [1,2]. In this study, we aimed to look into the impact of COVID-19 on incidence and outcomes of patients with Acute Myocardial Infarction using a nationally representative sample from the USA. […]

SHM Converge 2023
Background: The underlying burden of medical co-morbidity is often the main driver of ICU transfer of patients initially admitted to the medical wards (1). The role of non-patient related factors is unclear, as are the mortality and economic data associated with ICU transfer from the medical ward. The purpose of this analysis was to identify […]

SHM Converge 2023
Background: The COVID-19 pandemic was one of the biggest threats to human health, affecting health and health care delivery systems at both the individual and institutional level. There have been varied reports about how sociodemographic factors affect outcomes of patient with COVID-19 [1] [2] [3]. In this US claims based study, we analysed discharge data […]

SHM Converge 2023
Background: Coronavirus-19 (COVID-19), primarily a respiratory virus, can affect multiple organs, including the heart. Cardiac complications can affect 20-30% of COVID-19 patients and lead to worse morbidity and mortality. Cardiovascular complications can include myocarditis, acute myocardial infarction, heart failure, and arrhythmias Myocarditis is a well-known complication among COVID-19 infections, with limited large-scale studies evaluating outcomes […]

SHM Converge 2023
Background: In 2012, as part of Value based purchasing program, CMS instituted the Hospital Readmission Reduction program (HRRP). This aimed to decrease the number of unplanned readmission to the hospital for six conditions: Acute myocardial infarction(AMI),chronic obstructive pulmonary disease( COPD), Heart Failure (HF), Pneumonia ( PNA) , Coronary bypass graft(CABG), Elective total hip arthroplasty (THA) […]

SHM Converge 2023
Background: We observed improved survival among COVID-19 patients receiving remdesivir (RDV) during the early parts of the pandemic (Aug-Nov 2020) [1]. Clinical management of COVID-19 continues to develop over time as variants of concern (VOC) evolve. We extend the previous study to characterize outcomes for patients admitted on low-flow oxygen (LFO) and compare hospital all-cause […]

SHM Converge 2023
Background: ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is a cardiac emergency that requires timely reperfusion preferably with cardiac catheterization. The coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV2), has adversely impacted the delivery of healthcare to patients with STEMI. Several process changes were observed across the world during this period, including alternative cardiac […]

SHM Converge 2023
Background: While NT-proBNP has been known to predict mortality in heart failure patients and in hospitalized patients, its association with mortality in healthy adults without a history of cardiovascular disease is unknown. Further, it is unclear if a one-time measurement of NT-proBNP can predict distant mortality. Therefore, we examined the association between NT-proBNP with all-cause […]

SHM Converge 2023
Background: Chronic diseases, such as heart disease, diabetes, and cancer, are the leading causes of disability and death in New York State (NYS) and throughout the United States. County Health Rankings (CHR) is a program assessing the nation’s health on a county-by-county basis to provide a summary z-score for each county and determine county health […]
