CDC WONDER分析：1999至2024年美国65岁以上成人呼吸衰竭合并房颤/房扑死亡率趋势及至2035年预测

Abstract

Abstract Background: Respiratory failure (RF) and atrial fibrillation/flutter (AF/AFL) often occur together in older adults, but long-term national mortality trends for the two conditions combined have not been described. We examined trends and disparities in deaths with co-listed RF and AF/AFL among U.S. adults aged 65 years and older from 1999 to 2024, and projected rates through 2035. Methodology: We used the CDC WONDER Multiple Cause of Death database to identify deaths with ICD 10 codes J96 (RF) and I48 (AF/AFL) listed together. Age-adjusted mortality rates (AAMRs) per 100,000 were standardized to the 2000 U.S. population and stratified by sex, race/ethnicity, census region, urbanization, state, and place of death. Joinpoint regression was used to estimate annual percent changes (APCs) and average annual percent changes (AAPCs). Forecasts for 2025 to 2035 were generated with an exponential smoothing (ETS) model. Results: A total of 433,598 deaths were recorded. The overall AAMR rose from 12.8 in 1999 to 66.7 in 2024 (AAPC 8.11%; 95% CI, 7.35 to 8.87; P < 0.0001). Three segments were identified: an increase from 1999 to 2018 (APC 7.73%), a sharp rise from 2018 to 2021 (APC 18.10%), and a decline from 2021 to 2024 (APC -5.25%). Males had a higher AAMR and a steeper increase than females (AAPC 8.44% vs 7.81%). Non-Hispanic White adults had the highest mean AAMR, Hispanic adults had the largest relative increase (AAPC 8.72%), and Non-Hispanic Asian/Pacific Islander adults had the smallest (AAPC 6.23%). The Midwest had the fastest regional growth (AAPC 9.35%). From 1999 to 2020, non-metropolitan areas increased faster than metropolitan areas (AAPC 10.09% vs 8.21%). State AAMRs ranged from 24.7 in Ohio to 85.1 in Louisiana. Most deaths occurred in hospital inpatient settings (64.1%), followed by nursing homes (14.1%) and the home (11.9%). The model projects an AAMR of 122.96 per 100,000 by 2035 (95% prediction interval, 85.42 to 160.50). Conclusions: Mortality involving RF with AF/AFL among older U.S. adults increased more than fivefold over 25 years, with a marked surge during the COVID 19 period and only a partial decline afterward. Differences by sex, race/ethnicity, region, and urbanization point to groups that may benefit from earlier detection and coordinated cardiopulmonary care.
