Trends and associated factors in place of death among individuals with cardiovascular disease in China, 2008-2020: A population-based study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death (COD) in China. Understanding the characteristics of place of death (POD) among CVD deaths would be of great importance to evaluate the healthcare service utilization at the end stage of life. Limited studies have reported the POD distribution among CVD deaths, and little was known about the associated factors of hospital CVD deaths.

Methods

By using data from National Mortality Surveillance System (NMSS) in China, this study presented the characteristics of POD distribution during 2008 and 2020. Afterwards, multilevel logistic regression was used to explore associated factors of hospital CVD deaths and quantify the magnitude to which the spatial variations of hospital CVD deaths could be explained by thos
