Impact of comorbid opioid use disorder and major depressive disorder on healthcare utilization outcomes in patients with peripheral artery disease : A National Readmission Database analysis

BACKGROUND: Prior research has demonstrated that individuals with peripheral artery disease (PAD) often have comorbid opioid use disorder (OUD) and major depressive disorder (MDD), with limited data regarding their impact on readmission outcomes, length of stay, and cost. This study aimed to investigate these healthcare utilization outcomes in patients with PAD who have comorbid OUD and MDD.

METHODS: Data were obtained from the National Readmission Database from 2011 through 2018. The study population included all hospitalizations with PAD as the primary or secondary diagnosis, from which hospitalizations with OUD and MDD were extracted using appropriate ICD-9/10 diagnosis codes. Primary outcomes were 30-day and 90-day readmission, total cost, and total length of stay within the calendar year. We created hierarchical multivariable logistic regression models examining OUD with and without MDD, with a random effect for healthcare facility location.

RESULTS: From 2011 to 2018, 13,265,817 weighted admissions with PAD were identified. These admissions were segmented into four categories: No OUD/No MDD (12,056,466), OUD/No MDD (323,762), No OUD/MDD (867,641), and OUD/MDD (17,948). The group with No OUD/No MDD was used as the reference group for all subsequent comparisons. Regarding 30-day and 90-day readmissions, patients with OUD/MDD had odds of 1.14 (95% CI 1.10, 1.18) and 1.09 (95% CI 1.06, 1.13), respectively. Patients with OUD/No MDD bore the highest median cost of $64,354 (IQR $30,797-137,074), and patients with OUD/MDD marked the lengthiest median stay of 6.01 days (IQR 2.01-13.30).

CONCLUSION: This study found a significant association between these comorbidities and outcomes and therefore calls for targeted interventions and pain management strategies.
