This association may additionally be impacted by multimorbidity and caregiver support in PWD.

PIMs included sedative\u2010hypnotics, strongly anticholinergics, and medications from 2019 Beers and STOPP\u2010Version 2 criteria. The primary outcome was a prescription for \u2265\u20091 PIM. We used logistic regression with national survey weights to examine the association between household wealth (above vs. below sample median) and \u2265\u20091 PIM through 4 models: (1) unadjusted, (2) adjusted for demographics (age, sex, race\/ethnicity), 3) Model 2\u2009+\u2009comorbidity count (range 0\u20137), (4) Model 3\u2009+\u2009caregiver type (no caregiver, paid caregiver, unpaid caregiver only).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>The cohort consisted of 1475 PWD (median age 84, 67% female, 15% Black, median household wealth $86,000 (IQR 2000\u2010315,000), 49% with unpaid caregiver only, 23% with paid caregiver). Overall, 76% received \u2265\u20091 PIM. Adjusting for demographics, PWD with below median wealth showed increased odds of receiving \u2265\u20091 PIM (OR\u2009=\u20091.44, 95% CI\u2009=\u20091.07\u20131.93). This association was not statistically significant after adjusting for comorbidity count (OR\u2009=\u20091.26, 95% CI\u2009=\u20090.93\u20131.70). In a stratified analysis by comorbidity count adjusting for demographics and wealth, paid caregiver presence was associated with increased odds of PIMs among individuals with \u2264\u20092 chronic conditions (OR\u2009=\u20092.60, 95% CI\u2009=\u20091.44\u20134.69) but not with \u2265\u20093 chronic conditions (OR\u2009=\u20090.90, 95% CI\u2009=\u20090.50\u20131.62) (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.02 for interaction).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>Among PWD, the association between lower wealth and increased odds of PIMs was no longer statistically significant after adjusting for comorbidity count.
