Abstract

To describe the epidemiology and costs of the acute care of peripheral vascular disease, infection, neuropathy, and ulceration in a U.K. population with special consideration of those patients with diabetes. Routine data describing inpatient care for a 4-year period were analyzed (financial years 1991/1992 to 1994/1995). These data had undergone record-linkage to draw together records from the same patients, and records of patients with diabetes were flagged. Cost estimates were determined by attributing a diagnosis-related group cost-weight to each record. A total of 4,245 admissions (1.2% of all admissions) had a primary diagnosis of peripheral vascular disease, infection, neuropathy, or ulceration, and 7,379 (2.1%) admissions had these categories recorded in any one of six diagnostic fields. These figures were generated by 3,159 and 4,751 patients, respectively. This represented a range of crude annual incidence of admission of between 1.9 and 2.9 per 1,000 people. Patients with diabetes accounted for 625 (15.4%) of primary admissions, a crude annual incidence of admission of 18.8 per 1,000. The age-standardized relative risk of admission for patients with diabetes to the nondiabetic population was 7.61 for men and 6.85 for ...Continue Reading
