“…4 Some studies have noted a conservative treatment bias for such patients. 8,9 It is unclear, though, if AMI management bias persists for HIV patients using more recent data, or whether such bias translates into an appreciable inhospital mortality difference. We conducted this observational study to evaluate practice patterns and inpatient outcomes of patients with seropositive HIV infection, presenting with AMI compared with the general non-HIV population.…”

“…Similar findings of increased costs have also been observed in several other studies in patients with HIV undergoing various procedures. 37,38 This may be due to additional medications being needed and the increased risk of infection in this population. 39 This population of patients is also younger without many of the same risk factors found typically in patients with PAD, which may delay recognition and workup prior to revascularization.…”

“…The study was conducted between January 2018 and May 2018 with the use of the National Inpatient Sample (NIS), Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project, Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality. The NIS is the largest publicly available database on all-payer administrative claims in the United States and has been extensively used to analyze trends in cardiovascular care [11, 12]. NIS data from January 2005 through December 2011 were included in the study.…”
