Main Article Content
Abstract
Objectives: To analyze some associated factors to inpatient pattern at the National Hospital of Dermatology and Venereology. Materials and methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis of the admission and discharge records of all patients, collected from HISPRO software, admitted to our hospital from October 1, 2022 to September 30, 2023. Results: The five groups of diseases with the highest hospitalization rates are papulosquamous disorder (22.6%), eczema dermatitis (19.4%), autoimmune skin diseases (10.5%), urticaria and erythema (9.0%), skin tumors and skin cancer (6.5%). There is a statistically significant difference in age distribution across various skin disease groups, including skin and soft tissue infections, fungal skin diseases, parasitic skin diseases, eczema and dermatitis, urticaria and erythema, disorders of skin appendages, pigmentary disorders, vascular-related skin diseases. Viral skin diseases, fungal skin diseases, skin tumors and skin cancer, autoimmune skin diseases, and urticaria/erythema were observed more frequently in females (p<0.05). Eczema and dermatitis, erythematous scaly skin diseases were noted to be more common in males (p<0.05). Conclusions: The five groups of diseases with the highest hospitalization rates are erythrodermic skin diseases with papules and scales, eczema dermatitis, autoimmune skin diseases, urticaria and erythema, and skin tumors and skin cancer. Viral skin diseases, fungal infections, and skin cancer are more prevalent among females and older adults.
