Hospitalization Outcomes of Patients with Asthma, COPD, and Asthma-COPD Overlap Syndrome
While ACO was associated with higher rates of baseline comorbidities, increased length of stay, and higher health care cost during index admission, this did not translate into higher in-hospital mortality, complication rates, or risk for asthma-related readmission mortality when compared to asthma or COPD alone, highlighting the complexity of the ACO disease burden.
