Time, age- and sex-matched control groups were derived in a 2:1 allocation ratio inclusive of: hospitalized individuals who did not undergo PSG (inpatient control) and individuals referred to an ambulatory sleep medicine clinic (clinic control). Comorbidities, socioeconomic deprivation and marginalization indices, rurality, and health care utilization within the preceding year to enrollment, were compared between groups.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We matched 275 inpatient PSG with 550 inpatient control and 550 clinic control subjects. Compared to both control groups, the inpatient PSG group had greater burden of comorbidities and more frequent specialist physician appointments. They had greater marginalization index, social assistance use, and lower income levels compared to clinic control subjects. More frequent emergency department visits, acute care admissions, and days in hospital were observed in the inpatient PSG group compared to clinic control subjects. Inpatient PSG subjects had more severe sleep disordered breathing (SDB) compared to clinic control subjects.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Subjects evaluated with in-patient PSG had\u00a0a greater multimorbidity, social disadvantages, and health care usage.
