Temporal trends and outcomes of peripheral artery disease revascularization and amputation among the HIV population.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

With antiretroviral therapy, people with HIV (PWH) are developing age-related diseases, including peripheral arterial disease (PAD). This study examined frequency and outcomes of peripheral vascular intervention (PVI) and primary amputation in PWH.

Design

We used the National Inpatient Sample (NIS) database to examine demographics, comorbidities, and temporal trends among PVI and primary amputation admissions by HIV status from 2012 to 2018.

Methods

Inverse probability of treatment weighting was used to calculate adjusted odds of in-hospital death and amputation. Cost of hospitalization and length of stay were compared by HIV status and revascularization approach.

Results

Of the 347 824 hospitalizations for PVI/amputation, 0.6% were PWH, which was sta
