There are limited data describing the prevalence of mental health disorders (MHDOs) in patients with ventricular assist devices (VADs), or associations between MHDOs and resource use or outcomes. We used the Nationwide Emergency Department Sample administrative database to analyze 44,041 ED encounters for VAD-supported adults from 2010 to 2017, to assess the relationship between MHDOs and outcomes in this population. MHDO diagnoses were present for 23% of encounters, and were associated with higher charges and rates of admission, but lower mortality.
目前关于患有心室辅助装置（VAD）的患者中心理健康障碍（MHDO）的患病率，或 MHDO 与资源利用或结果之间的关系的数据有限。我们使用全国急诊部样本行政数据库，分析了 2010 年至 2017 年期间 44041 例 VAD 支持的成年人的急诊就诊情况，以评估该人群中 MHDO 与结果之间的关系。23%的就诊患者存在 MHDO 诊断，与更高的费用和住院率相关，但死亡率较低。
