    Excerpt

    This Statistical Brief examines the long run trend in HIV hospitalizations between 1998 and 2005 after the introduction of HAART, using data from the Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project (HCUP). First, national estimates of HIV discharges and hospital costs are provided for 1998 and 2005. HIV-related hospital stays are analyzed by age, gender and payer. Second, we examined the top ten principal diagnoses for HIV hospital stays between 1998 and 2005. Third, the inpatient death rate of HIV hospitalizations and HIV-associated complications are examined. All differences between estimates in the text are statistically significant at the 0.05 level or better, unless otherwise noted.
