- W2003553880 abstract "Background and objective: The hospitalization of asthma patients accounts for substantial costs in any health‐care system. However, the utilization of medical resources and the cost of hospitalizing asthma patients in Thailand have never been evaluated. This study aimed to evaluate the utilization of health‐care resources and itemize the cost of hospitalizing asthma patients in a regional hospital in north‐east Thailand. Methods: A cross‐sectional, retrospective study was conducted at Surin Hospital, a 697‐bed, regional hospital in north‐east Thailand. The study included 183 adults (≥15 years of age) who were admitted with acute asthma. Demographic data, resource‐utilization parameters and itemized costs were recorded. Results: The average hospital cost was TH 5809.3 ± 6587.4 (US$134.5 ± 152.5) per patient (range, TH 740–57 980 or US$17.1–1342.1). Medications were the primary hospital expense (47.2%), followed by hospital charges (13.5%), nursing care (13.0%) and respiratory therapy (12.2%). Fifteen per cent of patients accounted for 45% of total hospital costs. Significant predictors of increased total hospital cost were: (i) age ≥60 years; (ii) presence of comorbid conditions; (iii) admission to the intensive care unit; and/or (iv) prolonged hospital stay. Conclusion: Despite the low unit costs for inpatient care in Thailand, the cost of hospitalizing asthma patients (especially the elderly) constitutes a substantial burden to the health‐care system." @default.
