ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
The progression of Parkinson's disease is associated with complications, most of them preventable.AIM:
To analyze hospitalizations with a diagnosis of Parkinson's disease in Chile, comparing the different health subsystems. MATERIAL ANDMETHODS:
Analysis of hospital discharge database available at the website of the Chilean Ministry of Health. Discharges that incorporated the diagnosis of Parkinson's disease (ICD 10 code G20), between the years 2001 and 2018 were analyzed.RESULTS:
The rate of discharges with the diagnosis of Parkinson's disease was 34.5 per 100,000 hospitalizations. The figures were 55.2 and 29.8 discharges per 100,000 in 2001 and 2018, respectively. Sixty seven percent of hospital admissions for Parkinson's occurred in the public sector and corresponded to beneficiaries of the public health insurance system (FONASA). Beneficiaries of private insurance systems accounted for 12% of hospital admissions. The mean hospital stay was 13.4 days.CONCLUSIONS:
There is a decrease over time in the rate of hospitalizations with Parkinson's disease. This trend may be related with the incorporation of this disease in a special governmental program that guarantees a timely access to diagnosis and treatment.Mots clés
