Exploring short\u2010term outcomes is vital in health care planning and resource allocation.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>The Nationwide Readmissions Database from 2010 to 2014 was queried using the ICD\u20109 codes for VT (427.1) and catheter ablation (37.34) to identify study population. Incidence, causes of 30\u2010day readmission, in\u2010hospital complications as well as predictors of 30\u2010day readmissions, complications, and cost of care were analyzed.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Among 11\u00a0725 patients who survived to discharge after index admission for VT ablation, 1911 (16.3%) were readmitted within 30 days. Paroxysmal VT was the most common cause of 30\u2010day readmission (39.51%). Dyslipidemia, chronic kidney disease (CKD), previous CABG, congestive heart failure (CHF), chronic pulmonary disease, and anemia predicted increased risk of 30\u2010day readmissions. The overall in\u2010hospital complication rate was 8.2% with vascular and cardiac complications being the most common. Co\u2010existing CKD and CHF and the need for mechanical circulatory support (MCS) predicted higher complication rates. Similarly increasing age, CKD, CHF, anemia, in\u2010hospital use of MCS or left heart catheterization, teaching hospital, and disposition to nursing facilities predicted higher cost.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>Approximately one in six patients was readmitted after VT ablation, with paroxysmal VT being the most common cause of the readmission. A complication rate of 8.2% was noted. We also identified a predictive model for increased risk of readmission, complication, and factors influencing the cost of care that can be utilized to improve the outcomes related to VT ablation.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/pace.13905","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,3,20]],"date-time":"2020-03-20T18:41:49Z","timestamp":1584729709000},"page":"444-455","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":11,"title":["Short\u2010term outcomes associated with inpatient ventricular tachycardia catheter ablation"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"43","author":[{"given":"Purnima","family":"Sharma","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Cardiovascular disease department, College of Medicine University of Arizona  Phoenix Arizona"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3025-7715","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Byomesh","family":"Tripathi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Cardiovascular disease department, College of Medicine University of Arizona  Phoenix Arizona"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Vamsidhar","family":"Naraparaju","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Hoffman Heart and Vascular Institute, St. Francis Hospital and Medical Center University of Connecticut School of Medicine  Hartford Connecticut"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mayur","family":"Patel","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Cardiovascular disease department, College of Medicine University of Arizona  Phoenix Arizona"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Abhishek","family":"Bhagat","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Cardiovascular disease department, College of Medicine University of Arizona  Phoenix Arizona"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Charan","family":"Yerasi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Medstar Georgetown University Hospital  Washington, DC"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Varun","family":"Kumar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of South Florida  Tampa Florida"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Parvir","family":"Aujla","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Nova Southeastern University  Fort Lauderdale Florida"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Gagandeep","family":"Singh","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Hoffman Heart and Vascular Institute, St. Francis Hospital and Medical Center University of Connecticut School of Medicine  Hartford Connecticut"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sopan","family":"Lahewala","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Hoffman Heart and Vascular Institute, St. Francis Hospital and Medical Center University of Connecticut School of Medicine  Hartford Connecticut"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Shilpkumar","family":"Arora","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Cardiovascular disease department University Hospitals  Cleveland Ohio"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Abhishek","family":"Deshmukh","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cardiology Mayo Clinic  Rochester Minnesota"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Aneesh","family":"Tolat","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Hoffman Heart and Vascular Institute, St. Francis Hospital and Medical Center University of Connecticut School of Medicine  Hartford Connecticut"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,5,2]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_9_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161\/hc4301.098254"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jacc.2017.01.047"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ijcard.2018.03.127"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1056\/NEJMoa065457"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1056\/NEJMoa1513614"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/jce.12567"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jacep.2017.12.008"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jacc.2012.03.044"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161\/CIRCULATIONAHA.111.043216"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jacc.2015.10.026"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_12_1","unstructured":"HCUP.
