Healthcare Trajectory

Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) in women is a growing public health issue and a death leading cause. We explored whether the hospital healthcare trajectory was characterizable using a longitudinal clustering approach in women with ACS. From the 2009–2014 French nationwide hospital database, we extracted spatio-temporal patterns in ACS patient trajectories, by replacing the spatiality by their hospitalization cause. We used these patterns to characterize hospital healthcare flows in a visualization tool. We clustered these trajectories with kmlShape to identify time gap and tariff profiles. ACS hospital healthcare flows have three key categories: Angina pectoris, Myocardial Infarction or Ischemia. Elderly flows were more complex. Time gap profiles showed that readmissions were closer together as time goes by. Tariff profiles were different according to age and initial event. Our approach might be applied to monitoring other chronic diseases. Further work is needed to integrate these results into a medical decision-making tool.

Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is the public health issue as it is the single most common cause of death in the world. Role of vitamin D in cardiovascular health is of much interest at present. Experimental, as well as, some observational studies suggest that vitamin D and its metabolites are integrally related to blood pressure and the rennin-angiotensin system. Vitamin D insufficiency affects almost 50% of the population worldwide. Few studies have been carried out to determine the prevalence of hypovitaminosis D in Bangladesh . 30 Patient with ACS were included in this study who had admitted in the department of Cardiology of Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University (BSMMU) patient with in first 48 hours of the onset of chest pain. This study was conducted from 1st  July’18 to 30th  June’19 (One year) by Purposive sampling. Data analysis was carried out by using the statistical package for Social Science (SPSS) version 20.0 windows software. Baseline characteristics have been compared using the independent sample student t-test test where appropriate. The student t-test was used to assess the correlation between PTH levels. p-value <0.05 was taken as significant. We found an association between elevated PTH levels and ACS.
