Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:Down Syndrome (DS) is the most common chromosome abnormality in humans. Due to the phenotype associated with DS, there are many disease states that require otolaryngologic procedures. Our goal is to use national data to study otolaryngologic procedures, their association with DS, and the degree of difference in risk profiles encountered with DS. METHODS:Data was obtained from the 2012-2015 American College of Surgeons' National Surgical Quality Improvement Program-Pediatric public use files. ENT procedure CPT codes were used to query the database and DS patients were identified using ICD-9 code 758.0. The ENT procedures were grouped into 18 categories and their frequency in DS patients as well as outcomes were analyzed. Postoperative outcomes were measured by complication rates, readmission rates, operation time, anesthesia time, and total length of stay. RESULTS:Results showed that DS patients are significantly (p < 0.05) over-represented in the following categories: Tracheostomy, Endoscopy, Laryngoscopy, Tracheoplasty, Myringoplasty, Tympanoplasty with Mastoidectomy, and Tympanoplasty without Mastoidectomy. DS patients are under-represented in the following categories: Abscess, Palatoplasty, Excision of Congenital Neck Cyst, and Cochlear Implantation. Logistic regression analysis showed that DS patients were significantly (p < 0.05) more likely to undergo procedures in the over-represented categories and were significantly (p < 0.05) less likely to undergo procedures in the under-represented categories as listed above. Outcomes analysis yielded no pattern of significance. CONCLUSION:Our data showed that DS may predispose patients to require certain procedures over others.
