Clinical and economic burden of invasive pneumococcal disease and non-invasive all-cause pneumonia in hospitalized US adults : A multicenter analysis from 2015-2020

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the clinical and economic outcomes in adults hospitalized with invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD) and non-invasive all-cause pneumonia (ACP) overall and by antimicrobial resistance (AMR) status.

METHODS: Hospitalized adults from the BD Insights Research Database with an ICD10 code for IPD, non-invasive ACP or a positive Streptococcus pneumoniae culture/urine antigen test were included. Descriptive statistics and multivariable analyses were used to evaluate outcomes (in-hospital mortality, length of stay [LOS], cost per admission, and hospital margin [costs - payments]).

RESULTS: The study included 88,182 adult patients at 90 US hospitals (October 2015-February 2020). Most (98.6%) had non-invasive ACP and 40.2% were <65 years old. Of 1,450 culture-positive patients, 37.7% had an isolate resistant to ≥1 antibiotic class. Observed mortality, median LOS, cost per admission, and hospital margins were 8.3%, 6 days, $9,791, and $11, respectively. Risk factors for mortality included ≥50 years of age, higher risk of pneumococcal disease (based on chronic or immunocompromising conditions), and intensive care unit admission. Patients with IPD had similar mortality rates and hospital margins compared with non-invasive ACP, but greater costs per admission and LOS.

CONCLUSION: IPD and non-invasive ACP are associated with substantial clinical and economic burden across all adult age groups. Expanded pneumococcal vaccination programs may help reduce disease burden and decrease hospital costs.
