This study examined the influence of board-certified cardiologist characteristics on the in-hospital mortality of patients with cardiovascular disease. Data were collected between 2012 and 2014 from a nationwide database of acute care hospitals in Japan. Overall, there were 1,422,703 patients, of whom 883,746 were analyzed. The primary outcome was all-cause in-hospital mortality. The association between board-certified cardiologist characteristics and in-hospital mortality was estimated using multilevel mixed-effect logistic regression modeling. Median age of cardiologists in a hospital was not related to in-hospital mortality (OR, 1.003; 95% CI: 0.998-1.008, P=0.316), but a greater cardiologist age range was associated with a lower risk of in-hospital mortality (OR, 0.992; 95% CI: 0.988-0.995 per 1-unit increment in age range, P<0.001). Meanwhile, the average years of experience of the board-certified cardiologists in a hospital was not associated with a lower risk of in-hospital mortality (OR, 1.002; 95% CI: 0.996-1.007, P=0.525), but a greater range of years of experience was (OR, 0.986; 95% CI: 0.983-0.990 per 1-unit increment in range of years of experience, P<0.001). Median board-certified cardiologist age/experience at an institution is not related to in-hospital mortality, but a greater range in age/experience is associated with a lower risk of mortality.
