3 Background Acute appendicitis Most common surgical emergency Time sensitive condition Risk of appendiceal perforation (AP) increases after 24 hours Delay in treatment increases risk of AP AP has higher morbidity
4 Background Poor access to healthcare Delay in surgical care Leads to increased AP rates AP rates: marker for access to surgical care Jablonski et al, Population Health Metrics, 2005 Gadmonski et al, HSR, 2001 Poor access = increased AP rates
5 Background Minorities have higher AP rates than whites Ponsky et al, JAMA 2004 Guagliardo et al, Acad Emerg Med 2003 Smink et al, Pediatrics 2005 Patients with public insurance have higher AP rates Pieracci et al, J Am Coll Surg 2007 Gadmonski et al, HSR 2001 Bratton et al, Pediatrics 2000 Braveman et al, NEJM 1994
6 Question Does equal access to healthcare eliminate racial and socioeconomic disparities in patients with perforated appendicitis?
7 Retrospective review Methods Southern California Kaiser Permanente Discharge database Patients (<18 years) with appendicitis
8 Methods Southern California Kaiser Permanente 12 Medical centers 3.5 million members (1% of US population) Single provider system All members have equal access to healthcare
9 Methods Study outcomes AP rate Length of hospitalization (LOH) Independent variables Age and gender Race Median per-capita Income Education level
10 Methods Race White, Black, Hispanic, Asian Median per-capita income Zip code of residence US Census database High, Medium, Low Education level Percentage of households with high school diplomas
11 Methods Statistical analyses Chi-squared analysis Multivariable linear and logistic regression
12 Results Gender AP Rate p Female (n = 2767) 30% Male (n = 4480) 29% Age < 5 years (n = 398) 60% 5-12 years (n = 3982) 30% > 12 years (n = 2867) 25% 0.33 <
13 Results Race AP Rate p White (n = 1863) 27% Black (n = 364) 24% Hispanic (n = 4758) 31% Asian (n =262) 33%
14 Results Income AP Rate p Low (<12K, n = 1640) 29% Medium (12-24k, n = 4257) 31% High (>24K, n = 1350) 26% Education Low (<50%, n = 1290) 28% Medium (50-75%, n = 3244) 31% 0.29 High (>75%, n = 2713) 29%
15 Results Multivariable Analysis: AP Rate Gender OR (95% CI) p Female (n = 2767) Reference Reference Male (n = 4480) 0.94 (0.84, 1.04) 0.22 Age < 5 years (n = 398) Reference Reference 5-12 years (n = 3982) 0.29 (0.23, 0.36) < > 12 years (n = 2867) 0.22 (0.18, 0.27) <

17 Results Multivariable Analysis: AP Rate Income OR (95% CI) p Low (<12K, n = 1640) Reference Reference Medium (12-24k, n = 4257) 1.00 (0.83, 1.21) 0.99 High (>24K, n = 1350) 0.79 (0.61, 1.01) 0.06 Education Low (<50%, n = 1290) Reference Reference Medium (50-75%, n= 3244) 1.16 (0.95, 1.43) 0.15 High (>75%, n = 2713) 1.29 (1.01, 1.64) 0.04
18 Results Gender LOH p Female (n = 2767) 2.9 ± 2.8 Male (n = 4480) 2.8 ± 2.9 Age 0.12 < 5 years (n = 398) 5.1 ± years (n = 3982) 2.9 ± 2.7 > 12 years (n = 2867) 2.4 ± 2.7 <
19 Results Race LOH p White (n = 1863) 2.8 ± 2.9 Black (n = 364) 3.2 ± 3.7 Hispanic (n = 4758) 2.8 ± Asian (n =262) 2.8 ± 2.7
20 Results Income LOH p Low (<12K, n = 1640) 2.8 ± 2.7 Medium (12-24k, n = 4257) 2.9 ± 3.0 < High (>24K, n = 1350) 2.5 ± 2.6 Education Low (<50%, n = 1290) 2.7 ± 2.7 Medium (50-75%, n = 3244) 2.9 ± High (>75%, n = 2713) 2.8 ± 2.9
21 Results Multivariable Analysis: LOH Gender PE (95% CI) p Female (n = 2767) Reference Reference Male (n = 4480) (-0.29, 0.03) 0.28 Age < 5 years (n = 398) Reference Reference 5-12 years (n = 3982) (-2.59, -1.89) < > 12 years (n = 2867) (-2.99, -2.28) <
22 Results Multivariable Analysis: LOH Race PE (95% CI) p White (n = 1863) Reference Reference Black (n = 364) 0.46 (0.08, 0.84) Hispanic (n = 4758) (-0.23, 0.17) 0.41 Asian (n =262) 0.04 (-0.40, 0.47) 0.83
23 Results Multivariable Analysis: LOH Income PE (95% CI) p Low (<12K, n = 1640) Reference Reference Medium (12-24k, n = 4257) 0.09 (-0.20, 0.38) 0.73 High (>24K, n = 1350) (-0.76, -0.01) Education Low (<50%, n = 1290) Reference Reference Medium (50-75%, n = 3244) 0.12 (-0.19, 0.44) 0.41 High (>75%, n = 2713) 0.29 (-0.08, 0.66) 0.40
24 Results Similar study in adult patients Similar results
25 Conclusions In a setting of equal healthcare access: Minority and lower socioeconomic status did not correlate with higher AP rates Minority and lower socioeconomic status did not correlate with a clinically longer LOH
26 Limitations Data from discharge abstract data Income and education levels based on zip codes Racial diversity of these studies may not reflect the US population Lowest socioeconomic level not addressed Unemployed and uninsured
27 Lowest Socioeconomic Patients Public (n = 682) Private (n = 7220) Per-Capita Income $11,600 $15,900 < AP Rate 42% 30% < LOH 3.9 ± ± 3.4 < p
28 Lowest Socioeconomic Patients Multivariable Analysis Public (n = 682) Private (n = 7220) AP Rate 1.8 (1.5, 2.2) Reference < LOH 0.6 Reference < p
29 Public vs. Private Hospitals Increased AP rate and LOH at public hospital Higher cost $2,150 per patient Surgical procedures- global reimbursement Within the public hospital AP rate and LOH Similar across all races and income levels
30 Conclusions Lower socioeconomic background at public hospitals AP disproportionately higher at public hospital Higher AP rate led to longer LOH and increased costs No racial or socioeconomic disparities exist within the public hospital
31 Summary Poor access to surgical care leads to higher AP rates Minorities and public insurance Racial and socioeconomic disparities were eliminated within a setting of equal access to care Disparities between systems exist due to prehospital factors
32 Future Direction Perform a prospective collection of data Look at other disease process Use of seatbelts Influence health care initiatives to decrease racial and socioeconomic disparities in healthcare
