Introduction: Since 2014, Balloon Pulmonary Angioplasty (BPA) has become an emerging and complementary strategy for chronic thromboembolic hypertension (CTEPH) patients who are not suitable for pulmonary endarterectomy (PEA) or who have recurrent symptoms after the PEA procedure.

Objective: To assess the hospital cost of BPA sessions and management in CTEPH patients.

Methods: An observational retrospective cohort study of CTEPH-adults hospitalized for a BPA between January 1st, 2014 and June 30th, 2016 was conducted in the 2 centres performing BPA in France (Paris Sud and Grenoble) using the French national hospital discharge database (PMSI-MCO).

Background: The prognosis of patients hospitalized with community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) with regards to intensive care unit (ICU) admission, short- and long-term mortality is correlated with patient's comorbidities. For patients hospitalized for CAP, including P-CAP, we assessed the prognostic impact of comorbidities known as at-risk (AR) or high-risk (HR) of pneumococcal CAP (P-CAP), and of the number of combined comorbidities.

Methods: Data on hospitalizations for CAP among the French 50+ population were extracted from the 2014 French Information Systems Medicalization Program (PMSI), an exhaustive national hospital discharge database maintained by the French Technical Agency of Information on Hospitalization (ATIH).

Background: Community-acquired pneumonia (CAP), especially pneumococcal CAP (P-CAP), is associated with a heavy burden of illness as evidenced by high rates of intensive care unit (ICU) admission, mortality, and costs. Although well-defined acutely, determinants influencing long-term burden are less known. This study assessed determinants of 28-day and 1-year mortality and costs among P-CAP patients admitted in ICUs.

Objective: The objective of the study was to compare success rates, complications and management costs of different surgical techniques for abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB).

Methods: This was a retrospective analysis of the French national hospital discharge database. All hospital stays with a diagnostic code for AUB and an appropriate surgical procedure code between 2009 and 2015 inclusive were identified, concerning 109,884 women overall.

Objectives: To estimate the number of patients hospitalized for HIV-related reasons in France, to describe their characteristics and to estimate hospitalization-associated costs.

Design: A retrospective analysis of the French hospital medical information database (Programme de médicalisation des systèmes d'information en médecine, chirurgie, obstétrique et odontologie database).

Methods: Patients hospitalized with HIV in France in 2013 and 2014 were identified in the database through International Classification of Diseases, 10th revision diagnostic codes as well as comorbidities and opportunistic infections.

Objective: A preliminary analysis of data consistency on different types of bacterial resistance by infection site and causative agents was conducted using the French hospital discharge database (French acronym PMSI) to assess the use of the database in a national cartography tool.

Material And Methods: Hospital stays in medical, surgical, and obstetrical units were extracted from the 2014 PMSI database using the ICD-10 diagnosis codes. Bacterial infections, causative agents, and resistance corresponding to these stays were also identified.

Objective: The HAS-BLED, ATRIA, and HEMORR2HAGES risk scores were created to evaluate individual bleeding risk in atrial fibrillation (AF). We sought to estimate and compare the predictive ability of these scores for major hemorrhage in AF, including elderly (≥80years) and non-elderly (<80years) patients.

Methods: This cross-sectional study is based on the French National Hospital Database (PMSI), which covers the entire French population.

Aims: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is associated with numerous cardiovascular complications. We sought to estimate the annual burden of cardiovascular complications in AF patients in French hospitals.

Methods And Results: All AF patients hospitalized in France in 2012 were identified from the national public/private hospital database.

Objective: Most patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) have risk factors and coexisting conditions that increase their mortality risk. We performed a cause-of-death analysis to identify predictors of mortality in hospitalised patients with AF in France.

Methods And Results: In this retrospective, population-based cross-sectional study, the Programme de médicalisation des systèmes d'information was used to identify 533 044 adults with a diagnosis of AF or atrial flutter hospitalised for any reason in France from January through December 2012.

Background: Stroke represents a major complication of atrial fibrillation (AF). The current anticoagulation options for stroke prevention increase hemorrhage risk. The objective of the study was to estimate the incidence and costs of hospitalization for stroke and hemorrhage in patients with AF who are eligible for stroke prevention.
