When Major Bleeding Extends Beyond Hospitalization – RPTH Journal
RPTH Journal shared a post on LinkedIn about a recent article by Nicholas S. Roetker et al. published in RTPH:
“Major bleeding is not just more common in dialysis; it is more costly after it happens.
In a new Medicare-based study published in RPTH Journal, patients with dialysis-dependent ESKD had longer and more expensive hospitalizations for major bleeding than patients without ESKD.
One year later, the burden remained high: bleeding-related hospitalizations were more frequent, costs were substantially higher, and readmissions were a major driver.
A sharp reminder that bleeding prevention in dialysis is not only a clinical priority, it is also a major health-system priority.”
