National Hospitalization Rates and In-Hospital Mortality Rates of HIV-Related Opportunistic Infections in the United States, 2011-2018.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-related opportunistic infections (OIs) cause substantial morbidity and mortality among people with HIV (PWH). US hospitalization and in-hospital mortality rates associated with OIs have not been published using data from the past decade.

Methods

We analyzed the National Inpatient Sample for the years 2011 through 2018. We used sociodemographic, financial, and hospital-level variables and identified hospitalizations for PWH and OI diagnoses. Using survey-weighted methods, we estimated all OI-related US hospitalization rates and in-hospital mortality per 100 000 PWH and modeled associated factors using survey-based multivariable logistic regression techniques.

Results

From 2011 to 2018, there were an estimated 1 710 164 (95%
