 Given the vulnerability of women and infants to
adverse peripartum conditions, federal programs
provide access to prenatal care and social
services, but few studies have examined ED
utilization by this population

 Secondary analysis of data from a Midwestern
 county-wide postpartum depression study
 County residents giving birth Feb-May 2009 were
systematically recruited from postpartum hospital floor.
 670 (74%) of eligible women were enrolled.
 658 Final Sample (12 withdrew from study)
 Trained research assistants (RAs) conducted phone
interviews at 2 months postpartum, collecting
information about psychosocial risk .
 621 (94%) completed the survey.
 RAs, monitored for intercoder reliability, also collected
demographics & pregnancy outcomes.
 ED-visit datasets were produced from hospital
administrative records.
 The peripartum period was defined as 8 weeks gestation
to 4 months postpartum
 Logistic regression, adjusted for demographic factors,
was used to identify the association between
psychosocial risk, birth outcomes, primary care
utilization and ED use.
Methods
 Among participants, 218 (33%) used the ED at
least once and 108 (16%) had more than one ED
visit during their peripartum period.
 49% of ED visits generated by this group were for
non-obstetric illness, 38% for obstetric-postpartum
reasons, 10% for injury and 3% for
substance/mental health concerns.
 ED users were significantly more likely to be
teenagers (14.2% v 6.4%; p=0.001 ), single (58.3%
v 28.7%; p<0.001 ), black (29.4% v 10.7%;
p<0.001 ), and Medicaid-insured (47.7% v 22.0%;
p<0.001 ).
 ED users were significantly more likely to have the
following psychosocial and health risks:
Postpartum depression, prenatal smoking, drug or
alcohol problem, a history of abuse, insecure
housing, obese body mass index (32.4% v 19.9%,
p=.002), inadequate prenatal weight gain (24.7% v
13.7%, p=.002), late entry into prenatal care, and
missed postpartum checkup visit.
Results
 Adjusting for demographic factors, ED users were
more likely to screen positive for postpartum
depression, OR=2.9 (1.7-5.0), to smoke prenatally
OR=3.0 (1.8-4.9), to have unstable housing, OR
2.0 (1.2-3.5), delayed onset into prenatal care, OR
1.6 (1.0-2.5) and fail to attend their postpartum
visit, OR=2.1(1.1-4.0).
Results Cont.
Limitations/Policy Implications
 Among a fully insured sample of pregnant
women, an ED visit was a marker for poor
perinatal outcomes and inadequate primary care

 These findings indicate a need for integrated
psychosocial interventions in the perinatal
period among pregnant ED users
 And an opportunity to link to primary care

Characterizing Emergency Department Utilization By A Population-based Cohort of Insured Pregnant Women_ Karin Rhodes_ 5_7_13

  • 1.  Given the vulnerability of women and infants to adverse peripartum conditions, federal programs provide access to prenatal care and social services, but few studies have examined ED utilization by this population Background Table 2: Adjusted Logistic Regression* (n=658) ED Use (n=218) No ED Use (n=440) OR 95% CI Psychosocial Risk Postpartum depression 40 20.1%** 29 6.8% 2.9 1.7 – 5.0 Prenatal Smoker 61 28.1%** 36 8.2% 3.0 1.8 – 4.9 Hx Alcohol Problem 6 6.1%** 3 1.5% 3.2 0.7 – 14.5 Hx Drug Problem 7 7.1%** 4 2.0% 2.5 0.6 – 9.4 History of abuse 39 21.9%** 55 15.2% 1.3 0.8 – 2.1 Unstable Housing 34 16.4%** 29 7.2% 2.0 1.2 – 3.6 Birth Outcomes Low Birth Weight 15 6.9% 16 3.7% 1.4 0.7 – 3.0 Prematurity 20 9.2%** 21 4.8% 1.9 0.9 – 3.7 Primary Care Utilization Delayed entry into prenatal care 59 27.4%** 59 13.7% 1.6 1.0 – 2.5 Did not attend postpartum visit 24 12.2%** 20 4.7% 2.1 1.1 – 4.0 *Adjusted for adolescence, marital status, race and medical insurance **p<.05 Pearson Chi-Square  Secondary analysis of data from a Midwestern  county-wide postpartum depression study  County residents giving birth Feb-May 2009 were systematically recruited from postpartum hospital floor.  670 (74%) of eligible women were enrolled.  658 Final Sample (12 withdrew from study)  Trained research assistants (RAs) conducted phone interviews at 2 months postpartum, collecting information about psychosocial risk .  621 (94%) completed the survey.  RAs, monitored for intercoder reliability, also collected demographics & pregnancy outcomes.  ED-visit datasets were produced from hospital administrative records.  The peripartum period was defined as 8 weeks gestation to 4 months postpartum  Logistic regression, adjusted for demographic factors, was used to identify the association between psychosocial risk, birth outcomes, primary care utilization and ED use. Methods  Among participants, 218 (33%) used the ED at least once and 108 (16%) had more than one ED visit during their peripartum period.  49% of ED visits generated by this group were for non-obstetric illness, 38% for obstetric-postpartum reasons, 10% for injury and 3% for substance/mental health concerns.  ED users were significantly more likely to be teenagers (14.2% v 6.4%; p=0.001 ), single (58.3% v 28.7%; p<0.001 ), black (29.4% v 10.7%; p<0.001 ), and Medicaid-insured (47.7% v 22.0%; p<0.001 ).  ED users were significantly more likely to have the following psychosocial and health risks: Postpartum depression, prenatal smoking, drug or alcohol problem, a history of abuse, insecure housing, obese body mass index (32.4% v 19.9%, p=.002), inadequate prenatal weight gain (24.7% v 13.7%, p=.002), late entry into prenatal care, and missed postpartum checkup visit. Results  Adjusting for demographic factors, ED users were more likely to screen positive for postpartum depression, OR=2.9 (1.7-5.0), to smoke prenatally OR=3.0 (1.8-4.9), to have unstable housing, OR 2.0 (1.2-3.5), delayed onset into prenatal care, OR 1.6 (1.0-2.5) and fail to attend their postpartum visit, OR=2.1(1.1-4.0). Results Cont. Limitations/Policy Implications  Among a fully insured sample of pregnant women, an ED visit was a marker for poor perinatal outcomes and inadequate primary care Conclusions 2009 County Population (N=2,674) Study Sample (658) p-value Age Adolescent (<20) Not Adolescent (20+) 9.6% 90.4% 9.0% 91.0% 0.6379 Maternal Race White Black Other 76.3% 19.5% 4.2% 78.3% 16.9% 4.9% 0.1277 Marital Status Married Single 58.5% 41.5% 61.5% 38.5% 0.1609 Insurance Status Private Medicaid No insurance 51.8% 47.6% 0.6% 67.3% 30.5% 2.1% <0.0001 Prenatal Care (Kessner) Adequate Intermediate Inadequate 65.9% 26.6% 7.1% 72.3% 22.9% 4.8% 0.0338 Prenatal BMI Underweight Healthy weight Overweight Obese 3.6% 45.2% 25.3% 25.9% 2.4% 47.9% 25.7% 24.0% 0.1261 Birthweight Adequate (2500+ grams) LBW (1501-2499 grams) VLBW (<1501 grams 92.8% 6.0% 1.1% 95.3% 4.0% 0.8% 0.0216 Prematurity <37 wks gestation 37-52 wks gestation 8.4% 91.6% 6.2% 93.8% 0.0619  These findings indicate a need for integrated psychosocial interventions in the perinatal period among pregnant ED users  And an opportunity to link to primary care Characterizing Emergency Department Utilization By A Population-based Cohort of Insured Pregnant Women Karin V.
