All Payer In-Hospital/30-Day Acute Stroke Mortality Rates by Hospital (SPARCS): Beginning 2013

Name: All Payer In-Hospital/30-Day Acute Stroke Mortality Rates by Hospital (SPARCS): Beginning 2013
Creator: New York State Department of Health
Published: 2016-01-28T20:38:52

The dataset contains hospital stroke designation and Coverdell registry participation status, acute stroke discharges counts (numerators, denominators), observed, expected and risk-adjusted acute stroke in-hospital/30-day post admission mortality rates with corresponding 95% confidence intervals. Mortality rates risk adjustment was based on the methodology developed by the New York State Department of Health.

The purpose of this data set is reporting of hospital-specific risk adjusted acute stroke mortality rates (RAMR) to inform hospitals, to aid initiatives to improve hospital quality performance and measurement, and to identify performance outliers for public reporting.

Querying over HTTP

Splitgraph serves as an HTTP API that lets you run SQL queries directly on this data to power Web applications. For example:

curl https://data.splitgraph.com/sql/query/ddn \
    -H "Content-Type: application/json" \

Upstream Metadata

NotesNotes#1) Risk adjustment methodology was developed by NYS DOH using 3MTM All Patient Refined Diagnosis Related Groups (APR-DRGs), Version 30.; #2) Measurement of the 30-days post acute stroke admission outcome was possible through matching of the inpatient SPARCS discharges with Vital Records data. #3) Stroke Center Designation and participation in the Paul Coverdell National Acute Stroke Registry (NASR) reflects hospital status during the evaluation time period and might not reflect the most current information.

DisclaimersLimitationsHospital discharges for out of state residents, those admitted from hospice, transfers from acute care hospitals and discharges within 30 days post initial acute stroke discharge were excluded from this measure. This measure was calculated only for patients 18 years of age or older. Risk adjusted stroke mortality rates presented only for hospitals with 30 or more stroke discharges in a measurement time period.

Dataset SummaryUnitsIn-Hospital/30-Day Post Admission Mortality Rate per 100 Stroke Discharges: Observed Stroke Mortality Rate = (Number of Death / Stroke Discharges)*100; Expected Stroke Mortality Rate = (Expected Number of Death / Stroke Discharges)*100; Risk Adjusted Stroke Mortality Rate (RAR) = (Observed Stroke Mortality Rate / Expected Stroke Mortality Rate)*Statewide Observed Rate*100; Mortality outcome definition: The in-hospital/30-day mortality outcome (Number of Deaths) is a composite measure and is defined as one of the following: (1) in-hospital death during the stroke admission; (2) death within 30 days post inpatient admission for stroke; (3) cases when patient who was admitted for an acute stroke, was discharged to hospice care and died within 30 days.CoverageStatewideGranularityHospital PFITime PeriodBeginning 2013OrganizationOffice of Quality and Patient SafetyDataset OwnerDivision of Information and StatisticsData FrequencyCalendar YearPosting FrequencyAnnually
