Cardiomyopathies, Cost

Brief summary

Cardiomyopathy is the most common inherited cardiovascular disease, showing family aggregation, and it has a huge psychological and economic burden on family members. In this study, the investigators collected clinical information and costs of patients hospitalized with cardiomyopathy and establish a database to characterize real-world cost profile and inform cost management of cardiomyopathy.

Detailed description

This study conducted a retrospective survey of hospitalized patients with cardiomyopathy aged ≥18 years in 13 centers in China from March 1, 2017 to March1, 2022. The investigators collected clinical information, healthcare utilization and cost data of patients hospitalized with cardiomyopathy so as to characterize real-world cost profile and inform cost management of cardiomyopathy in China.
