ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVES:
The impact of social determinants of health on the presentation, management, and outcomes of patients requiring hemodialysis (HD) arteriovenous (AV) access creation have not been well-characterized. The Area Deprivation Index (ADI) is a validated measure of aggregate community-level social determinants of health disparities experienced by members living within a community. Our goal was to examine the effect of ADI on health outcomes for first-time AV access patients.METHODS:
We identified patients who underwent first-time HD access surgery in the Vascular Quality Initiative between July 2011 to May 2022. Patient zip codes were correlated with an ADI quintile, defined as quintile 1 (Q1) to quintile 5 (Q5) from least to most disadvantaged. Patients without ADI were excluded. Preoperative, perioperative, and postoperative outcomes considering ADI were analyzed.RESULTS:
There were 43,292 patients analyzed. The average age was 63 years, 43% were female, 60% were of White race, 34% were of Black race, 10% were of Hispanic ethnicity, and 85% received autogenous AV access. Patient distribution by ADI quintile was as follows Q1 (16%), Q2 (18%), Q3 (21%), Q4 (23%), and Q5 (22%). On multivariable analysis, the most disadvantaged quintile (Q5) was associated with lower rates of autogenous AV access creation (OR, 0.82; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.74-0.90; P < .001), preoperative vein mapping (OR, 0.57; 95% CI, 0.45-0.71; P < .001), access maturation (OR, 0.82; 95% CI, 0.71-0.95; P = .007), and 1-year survival (OR, 0.81; 95% CI, 0.71-0.91; P = .001) compared with Q1. Q5 was associated with higher 1-year intervention rates than Q1 on univariable analysis, but not on multivariable analysis.CONCLUSIONS:
The patients undergoing AV access creation who were most socially disadvantaged (Q5) were more likely to experience lower rates of autogenous access creation, obtaining vein mapping, access maturation, and 1-year survival compared with the most socially advantaged (Q1). Improvement in preoperative planning and long-term follow-up may be an opportunity for advancing health equity in this population.Palavras-chave
