3 Background A large and growing body of evidence demonstrates the existence of racial and ethnic differences and disparities in health care. Relatively few studies have examined the influence of race and ethnicity on ICU care. The ICU is often the site of end-of-life care. There is no conclusive data on the influence of race on end-of-life care in the ICU.
4 Research Question Is end-of-life care in the ICU influenced by race and ethnicity?
5 Methods: Population and Setting Cluster-randomized trial 15 hospitals in Seattle-Tacoma Area Inclusion criteria: - Patients who died > 6hours after admission to ICU or <30 hours after transfer from ICU. No exclusion criteria
6 Methods: Data Predictor variables: Race and ethnicity Covariates: Patient age and sex Hospital site Income Education Health insurance Outcome variables: Evidence of advance care planning Use of life sustaining therapies Symptom management Communication about end-of-life care Use of support services
7 Methods: Statistical Analysis Descriptive analysis T-test Mann-Whitney Chi square Multivariate logistic regression Model 1: Patient age and sex Hospital site Model 2: Patient age and sex Hospital site Income Insurance type Education level
8 Results: Sample Characteristics Characteristic White (n=2479) Non-white (n=659) Patient Age (mean± SD) 70.3 ± ±16.5 <0.001 Female Patients (%) 41.3 (1025) 42.3 (279) 0.65 ICU LOS a Median (IQR) b 2.7 days (1.0, 6.7 days) 2.8 days (1.0, 6.6 days ) 0.80 P Household Income (median ± SD) 50,800±13,700 45,600±12,200 <0.001 Cause of death % (n) 0.64 Trauma 10.0 (249) 9.4 (62) Cancer 14.0 (347) 15.3 (101) Other cause 76 (1883) 75.3 (496) Education Level % (n) <0.001 No High School Diploma 14.1 (341) 28.4 (180) High School Diploma 66.1 (1604) 55.1 (349) College Degree 19.8 (480) 16.4 (104) Insurance % (n) <0.001 Insured 88.2 (2187) 70.4 (464) Underinsured 11.8 (292) 29.6 (195) a LOS = length of stay; b IQR = interquartile range.

14 Results Summary Non-white patients were less likely to have ACP and more likely to die with life sustaining measures. Documentation of conferences differed in white versus non-white patients. There is no clear influence of race/ethnicity on symptom management. Non-white patients more likely to have social work involvement in care.
15 Important Limitations Descriptive study Results are dependent on the accuracy of documentation Relatively small non-white study sample NW regionality
16 Conclusions There are racial and ethnic differences in end-of-life care in the ICU independent of socioeconomic factors. These differences appear to be driven by cultural preferences about end-of-life care but may also represent racial and ethnic disparities Improving end-of-life care in the ICU for all and eliminating disparities in care requires full understanding of these issues.
