- W4379283543 abstract "e24114 Background: Gastrointestinal (GI) cancers account for a large proportion of cancer-related deaths and are often associated with significant impairment in quality of life, even at earlier stages. Although guidelines recommend early palliative care (PC) involvement in all patients with advanced cancer, and select patients at earlier stages, implementation of these practices has been highly variable. Methods: Using the National Inpatient Sample (NIS) database, we selected all adult patients admitted with a primary diagnosis of any GI malignancy from 2016 to 2020. We compared demographic characteristics as well as differences in in-hospital mortality, total hospital charges, and length of stay for patients who received a palliative care consultation during the admission and those who did not, with a goal of elucidating biases and informing future quality improvement efforts. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was conducted to adjust for confounders. Results: There were 1,123,075 admissions with a primary diagnosis of a GI malignancy from 2016 to 2020, which represented 0.8% of total adult admissions.10.5% of admissions included a PC consultation. Rate of PC consultation varied based on the site of primary malignancy (see table). Patients for whom PC was consulted were older (69.3 vs. 66.2 years, p < 0.01), less likely to be white (62.7% vs. 67.1%, p < 0.01), and more likely to have Medicare (60.4 vs. 55.5, p < 0.01). These patients were 12.8 times more likely to die during admission (mortality 24.2% vs. 1.9%, p < 0.01), had longer lengths of stay (8.5 vs. 6.9 days, p < 0.01) and lower total charges (84,400.2 vs. 96,637.6 USD, p < 0.01). Conclusions: Early PC involvement in cancer care has been associated with improvement in quality of life and decreases in costs and readmissions. Rates of PC involvement in our cohort were overall low. Different rates of consultations for different races signal possible provider bias. The significantly higher mortality in patients who received a PC consult reflects the still current practice of involving PC only at the end of life. Quality improvement efforts should focus on eliminating biases and implementing strategies to maximize early palliative care utilization among patients with locally advanced or metastatic GI malignancies.
