Impact of patient characteristics and treatment procedures on hospitalization cost and length of stay in Japanese patients with influenza: A structural equation modelling approach

Abstract: ObjectivesLittle is known about the economic burden of influenza‐related hospitalizations in Japan. This study sought to identify the factors that contribute to the total healthcare costs (THCs) associated with hospitalizations due to influenza in the Japanese population.Study designA retrospective cross‐sectional database analysis study.MethodsA structural equation modelling approach was used to analyse a nationwide Japanese hospital claims data. This study included inpatients with at least 1 confirmed diagno… Show more

“…Influenza infections are responsible for a substantial burden on individuals, communities, and public health worldwide, with children being among the most immunologically vulnerable groups 1–3 . Typically, influenza infections are transient; viral loads peak within 1 to 3 days of infection and decrease over the following 3 to 5 days 4 .…”

“…[20]. The data were obtained from hospital electronic information systems from 147 acute-phase hospitals throughout Japan and have been used in health-economic or epidemiological analyses of many different diseases such as schizophrenia [21], influenza [22], respiratory syncytial virus [23]. RA [24, 25], Cancer [26, 27], cardiovascular disease [28], and diabetes [29].…”

“…The DPC is a Diagnosis-related group (DRG)-like flat fee system that was introduced in 2003 for large hospitals in Japan [ 8 ]. The MDV database has been accessed to analyze a wide range of therapeutic areas in Japan such as rheumatoid arthritis [ 9 , 10 ], influenza [ 11 ], or schizophrenia [ 12 ].…”
