摘要: Objectives The purpose of this study was to evaluate the relationship between race and level amputation discuss implications if a disparity found. Methods From 2003 Healthcare Cost Utilization Nationwide Inpatient Sample, 80 845 (weighted) discharges with diagnosis vascular disease black or white were evaluated for in amputation. Level categorized using International Classification Diseases, Ninth Revision, Clinical Modification procedure codes into above-knee below-knee SPSS 15.0 complex samples software (SPSS Inc, Chicago, Illinois) used univariate multivariate statistical analysis. Results Bivariate (p Conclusions Black is significantly more associated when compared race. consequences higher-level evaluation could lend disparities overall health races.
