Trends in sepsis-associated cardiovascular disease mortality in the United States, 1999 to 2022.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death in the United States, and sepsis significantly contributes to hospitalization and mortality. This study aims to assess the trends of sepsis-associated CVD mortality rates and variations in mortality based on demographics and regions in the US.

Methods

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Wide-ranging Online Data for Epidemiologic Research (CDC WONDER) database was used to identify CVD and sepsis-related deaths from 1999 to 2022. Data on gender, race and ethnicity, age groups, region, and state classification were statistically analyzed to obtain crude and age-adjusted mortality rates (AAMR). The Joinpoint Regression Program was used to determine trends in mortality within the study period.
