Multimorbidity, not human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) markers predicts unplanned admission among people with HIV in regional New South Wales
Internal Medicine Journal Jun 26, 2018
Edmiston N, et al. - In this prospective cohort study, the researchers determined factors predictive of unplanned admission among people with human immunodeficiency virus (PWH) in regional New South Wales as well as compared care coordination between people with and without unplanned admissions. Using Cox regression analysis, baseline HIV-specific results and multimorbidity markers including Cumulative Illness Rating Scale (CIRS) were assessed as predictors of time to first unplanned admission. It was observed that unplanned admission among PWH was predicted by multimorbidity. In order to lessen their severity and prevent unplanned admissions, care for PWH should include coordinated management of other health conditions.
