Clinical Classification Software (CCS) was employed to categorize the causes of acute coma. We examined the characteristics of acute coma cases, age-specific incidence rates, underlying causes, and clinical outcomes such as reversible coma, hospitalization, and 30-day mortality. Additionally, we assessed functional outcomes at a one-year follow-up. Long-term factors influencing mortality were ascertained using Cox regression. Results Among 99,217,322 ED visits between 2000 and 2017, 419,480 acute coma events were identified, with an event rate of 4.23 per 1,000 ED visits and an incidence rate of 0.93 per 1,000 person-years. We analyzed 205,747 first-ever acute coma cases, predominantly male (58.90%), aged 58.27 years (SD 23.04). Infection and CNS causes were predominant. CNS and drug-related causes contributed to increased 30-day mortality, while psychiatric, alcohol, women's health and perinatal care, and seizure are causes linked to reversible coma. Patients needed intensive care (26.54%), life-sustaining treatments (41.09%), or disability (6.57%). Generalized estimating equations revealed that CNS (aOR, 0.68; 95% CI, 0.62 to 0.74; p < .0001) and drug-related causes (aOR, 0.72; 95% CI, 0.65 to 0.81; p < .0001) were less likely to result in reversible coma, suggesting higher 30-day mortality risk factors. Cox regression showed drugs (aHR, 1.30, 95% CI 1.20 to 1.41, p < .001), neoplasm (aHR, 1.18, 95% CI 1.11 to 1.25, p < .001), and symptoms (aHR, 1.44, 95% CI 1.24 to 1.67, p < .001) elevated the long-term death risk. Conclusion Our study demonstrates the use of ICD codes aggregation to CCS in acute coma clinical study, providing insights into its clinical nature. Coma Clinical Classifications Software Incidence Risk factors Natural history studies Prognosis Figures Figure 1 WHAT IS ALREADY KNOWN ON THIS TOPIC Acute coma with diverse causes and significant impacts on clinical course, mortality, and disability. Timely diagnosis and appropriate treatment are essential because acute coma often reflects life-threatening, systemic or intracranial processes. Heterogeneity results of acute coma studies may be due to research design and the underlying mechanism or cause are classified. Adopting secondary data for studying acute coma can provide valuable insight into preventing and treating acute coma. WHAT THIS STUDY ADDS Using the AHRQ Clinical Classification Software (CCS) method, we propose a new clinical research model for studying acute coma, addressing the research gap The incidence of acute coma is approximately 0.93 per 1,000 person-years, with older adults experiencing it at rates approximately 54 and 12 times higher than pediatric and adult groups, respectively. In the clinical course of acute coma, 45.49% of cases are reversible, 41.66% necessitate hospitalization, and within the 30-day mortality group, older adults constitute two-thirds. Infections and CNS-related diseases were the most common causes. The one-year follow-up after acute coma index date showed 26.54% of cases needed ICU treatment, 6.57% were complicated with a disability, and 1.88% were confined in nursing homes. INTRODUCTION Acute coma is a critical time-sensitive condition with heterogeneous causes that requires urgent attention and has significant impacts on patients and healthcare professionals 1 . It is characterized by profound failure of the neurological system responsible for maintaining arousal and awareness, leading to either a reflex response or no response to external stimuli at all 2 . Prior studies estimate that 1–5% of patients presenting to the emergency department (ED) have a disturbance in consciousness 3 4 . Emergency care researchers often categorize acute coma into three etiological factors: primary CNS disease, severe medical conditions that affect the CNS secondarily, or functional such as psychogenic disorder 5 6 . The clinical course of acute coma has been classified into three main categories: reversible coma, where patients recover quickly after ED management and can be discharged without any functional deficits; mortality group consisting of patients who do not survive their coma event despite medical interventions; and hospitalization group, which includes patients requiring hospitalization that may need intensive care or life-sustaining treatments (LSTs), or complicated with long-term disabilities 7 8 . Major challenge in studying acute coma is its heterogeneous nature, with multiple contributing factors often present in a single patient. Variations in acute coma study results may arise due to differences in definitions, cause classifications, and follow-up periods 9 . These factors can affect outcomes and complicate direct comparisons between studies, underscoring the need for standardized methodologies 10 . Despite the urgent need for a better understanding clinical nature of acute coma, there is a lack of large-scale longitudinal studies that can comprehensively address the incidence, causes, clinical course, and outcomes of acute coma. The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) has developed the Clinical Classification Software (CCS) to provide a standardized method for classifying diagnosis codes into CCS categories based on clinical characteristics 11 12 . The CCS categories employ the International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision, Clinical Modification (ICD-9-CM) and Tenth Revision, Clinical Modification (ICD-10-CM) classification systems to aggregate large numbers of ICD diagnostic codes into 285 clinically meaningful categories, thereby making clinical research more feasible. Our study aims to ( 1 ) estimate acute coma incidence, ( 2 ) use the CCS to identify acute coma causes, and ( 3 ) investigate the clinical course and outcomes. MATERIALS AND METHODS Study design and setting In this observational study, we utilized Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database (NHIRD) to examine ED visits between January 1, 2000, and December 31, 2017. The NHIRD, managed by the Ministry of Health and Welfare, offered a comprehensive dataset with information on demographics, comorbidities, hospitalization, functional status, and mortality. This study was conducted with the approval of the local ethics board and involved no direct patient interaction. We carried out a retrospective analysis of claims data, ensuring all personal identifiers were encrypted to uphold patient confidentiality. Acute coma participants definition Given the nature of this study, we utilized the NHIRD dataset to investigate acute coma incidences. However, it should be noted that the NHIRD dataset lacks specific indicators like the Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) to represent coma status. Consequently, we relied on the judgment of emergency physicians in diagnosing acute coma instances, especially in cases where there was no explicit diagnosis but an indication of coma in the ED's diagnoses. We employed International Classification of Diseases (ICD) codes to define acute coma objectively. These codes encompass a range of acute coma conditions, including "780.01" for comatose, "780.09" for other alterations of consciousness, "R40.0" for somnolence, "R40.1" for stupor, "R40.2" for unspecified coma, and "S06.7" for intracranial injury-related coma. Therefore, our study population consisted of cases that included any of these codes within the three diagnoses upon ED discharge records and remained as the final research cohort (Fig. 1 ). The present study implemented several exclusion criteria to ensure precise estimation of the cause, disease progression, and clinical outcomes associated with acute coma. First, we omitted cases lacking comprehensive sociodemographic data. Second, we excluded those who were undergoing life-sustaining treatments or were disabled or residing in a nursing home prior to the acute coma event. Additionally, cases diagnosed with acute coma in the ED that CCS could not further classify were removed from the study. To rule out hospitalizations potentially unrelated to the acute coma events, we excluded samples hospitalized more than 14 days following the acute coma. Incidence estimates We estimated the annual acute coma event rate from 2000 to 2017, with acute coma events as the unit of analysis. The event rate of acute coma is calculated by dividing the number of events by ED visits. In addition, we determined crude age group-stratified incidence rates were determined per 1000 person-years, with denominators based on the number of insured individuals during the year, taking into account their survival status and the person-years they contributed within that year. Considering insured individuals' survival status and person-years contributed and reported age-specific incidence rates in pediatric ( 1 – 18 ), adult (19–64), and senior adult (65+) groups with corresponding summary statistics. Clinical course, causes and outcomes assessment The study explored the clinical course of acute coma using each patient's first-ever event as the unit of analysis. Index date was set as the date of first diagnosis acute coma. ED visits were categorized into reversible coma, hospitalization, and 30-day mortality 13 . Individuals who died within 30 days of the acute coma ED index date were classified as the 30-day mortality group. Those requiring hospitalization within seven days post-episode but not dying within 30 days constituted the hospitalization group. Patients diagnosed with acute coma in the ED without needing hospitalization or facing death were categorized as the reversible coma group. Using CCS methodology 12 14 15 , we categorized ICD codes from death or hospitalization into 23 acute coma causes (Supplementary Table 1) and a statistical analysis plan is available in the (Supplementary Program). The diagnosis sequence began with death, hospitalization, and ED diagnosis if no death or hospitalization occured. These causes were further classified into three etiological mechanisms : ( 1 ) primary CNS diseases (neurological etiology), ( 2 ) medical conditions affecting the CNS secondarily (medical etiology), and ( 3 ) functional etiology 5 . Neurological etiology included acute CNS insult, chronic neurodegenerative encephalopathy, paroxysmal seizure disorders, and brain trauma. Medical etiology included alcohol-related coma, drugs, and organ system dysfunction. Functional factors included psychogenic disorders, symptoms, syncope, and other related causes. Patients were followed for one year to evaluate short-term outcome (30-day mortality or reversible course) and long-term outcomes (ICU admission, LSTs 16 , rehabilitation, disability status, or nursing home residency). Statistical analysis We used χ² tests to analyze baseline categorical characteristics and compared continuous variables' mean among coma groups with One-Way ANOVA. Generalized estimating equations (GEE ) were used to estimate the adjusted odds ratio (aOR) of acute coma, accounting for multiple causes and covariates like sex, age, CCI, occupation, urbanization, and income. Survival analysis was conducted for reversible and hospitalization groups, tracking survival probability and calculating time to event (death) or censoring. Cox regression investigated potential death event causes, with hazard ratios identifying factors affecting long-term outcomes. Analyses were performed with SAS software, version 9.4, and a significance level of p < 0.05. RESULTS Cohort characteristics and clinical course estimate Among 99,217,322 ED visits between 2000 and 2017, 419,480 acute coma events were identified. Of these, 365,675 patients were discharged or hospitalized within seven days. After excluding 4,385 ED visits with only acute coma diagnosis code, lacking further information, and participants lacking sociodemographic data or with prior nursing home or disabled status, 205,747 cases remained in the final research cohort (Fig. 1 ). The cohort clinical course classified 93,598 (45.49%) as reversible acute coma group, 85,712 (41.66%) as hospitalization group, and 26,437 (12.85%) as 30-day mortality group. The study population was 54.39% male, with an average age of 58.27 (SD 23.04) years (Table 1 ).

Common reversible causes included infection (15.72%), trauma (10.89%), digestive (10.00%), women's health and perinatal care (9.56%), and CNS (8.74%). Hospitalization for acute coma frequently resulted from CNS (17.08%), infection (16.34%), cardiovascular (9.51%), digestive (9.30%), and diabetes and insulin (6.45%). Leading causes of death were CNS (27.40%), cardiovascular (12.41%), digestive (9.73%), trauma (9.10%), and infection (8.87%). Medical etiologies were the primary factor (66.75%), with neurological (27.60%) and functional (5.65%) etiologies also contributing. Short-term outcomes indicated 45.49% of cases left the ED without sequelae, 12.85% experienced 30-day mortality, and 41.66% necessitated hospitalization within seven days. Elderly patients had a significantly higher mortality rate of 62.56% compared to 11.56% for younger patients. The one-year follow-up showed ICU treatment (26.54%), LSTs (41.09%), rehabilitation (14.23%), disability (6.57%), and nursing care (1.88%). Multivariate analysis of acute coma The GEE analysis identified covariates significantly associated with increased acute coma mortality, including females, older age, higher Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) scores, low income, and rural residence (Table 3 ). Compared to other causes, CNS (adjusted odds ratio [aOR], 0.68; 95% CI: 0.62 to 0.74; p < .0001) and drug-related causes (aOR, 0.72; 95% CI: 0.65 to 0.81; p < .0001) had lower odds of reversible coma compared to 30-day mortality, while psychiatric (aOR, 57.02; 95% CI: 34.11 to 95.33; p < .0001), alcohol (aOR, 33.8; 95% CI: 21.81 to 52.38; p < .0001), women's health and perinatal care (aOR, 11.86; 95% CI: 10.11 to 13.92; p < .0001), seizures (aOR, 8.32; 95% CI: 6.15 to 11.24; p < .0001), and musculoskeletal/integumentary causes (aOR, 8.16; 95% CI: 7.04 to 9.47; p < .0001) had higher odds. Drug causes had lower odds of hospitalization compared to mortality (aOR, 0.82; 95% CI: 0.73 to 0.91; p = .0003), while psychiatry (aOR, 48.29; 95% CI: 28.88 to 80.77; p < .0001), seizure (aOR, 9.01; 95% CI: 6.67 to 12.17; p < .0001), women's health and perinatal care (aOR, 5.44; 95% CI: 4.63 to 6.40; p < .0001), and alcohol (aOR, 5.20; 95% CI: 3.31 to 8.17; p < .0001) causes increased the odds.

Our analysis revealed no significant differences between these two cohort definitions in terms of clinical course subgroup distribution and cause classification for acute coma (see Supplementary Table 2). This suggests that our findings are consistent and reliable across different definitions. DISCUSSION Acute coma frequently represents a common pathway of organ dysfunction from diverse causes, significantly impacting patients' survival and quality of life and straining healthcare resources. This study aims to explore the incidence density, causes, clinical courses, and outcomes of acute coma. Several methodological and result issues warrant discussion. Methodology discussion In our 18-year longitudinal retrospective cohort study, we utilize the ICD coding system alongside the CCS method to navigate the complex etiology of acute coma. This complexity, stemming from an array of reversible and time-sensitive factors, creates challenges in synthesizing diverse clinical causes into a unified cohort for claims-based research. Previous studies have often relied on medical record reviews 17 or rigorously designed cohort studies 18 , lacking a comprehensive and longitudinal perspective. To bridge this research gap, we have devised an innovative clinical research model that integrates big data analytics with clinical investigation. This approach offers a novel framework for examining the multifaceted clinical scenarios related to acute coma through claims-based data, thereby opening new avenues for neuroscientific research and enhancing emergency medical decision-making systems. Study design, population and cohort definition The Taiwan NHIRD, encompassing the entire population and offering comprehensive medical services, facilitated a thorough analysis of acute coma's clinical nature. Besides, The large cohort of over 200,000 patients offered a robust population representation. Moreover, we defined the cohort based on one impaired consciousness in the ED study, where the average hospitalization duration was 6.4 days. Thereforee we included acute coma onset and hospitalization within seven days as our study cohort 19 . By excluding patients with prior nursing home residence or disability status, provids a better understanding of the true incidence and outcomes of first-ever acute coma. Meanwhile, the lack of clinical coma scale data raises concerns about the methodology accuracy, which relied on ICD coding and the CCS method. Our study adopted a broader definition of acute coma, using ICD codes, covering various alterations of consciousness such as somnolence, stupor, unspecified coma, and intracranial injury-related coma. Our study adopted a broad range of acute coma diagnosis codes to capture various clinical scenarios 20 . We used ICD coding methodology covering the qualitative spectrum of 'decreased consciousness,' including somnolence, stupor, coma, and quantitative GCS score ranges 20 . We also included the current quantitative approach to coma assessment, coding GCS scores of 13–15 as R40.0, 9–12 as R40.1, and ≤ 8 as R40.2. This approach ensured a thorough representation of acute coma in our research sample. Defined of acute coma cause Integrating CCS with the ICD coding system in clinical research potentially offers a holistic and nuanced methodology for categorizing complex clinical data into clinically meaningful classes 14 . While established frameworks for transforming a myriad of ICD codes into clinically relevant categories that can guide clinical decision-making, inform policy interventions, or enable regular monitoring are not yet widespread 12 , In our study, we utilized CCS to condense 285 CCS categories into 23 clinically relevant causes of acute coma, rendering the study practically feasible and enabling the in-depth analysis of acute coma's multifaceted clinical manifestations. This approach facilitates large-scale, longitudinal population-based studies in EDs, optimizing approaches to address acute coma's clinical nature. Results discussion Understanding the clinical characteristics of acute coma makes it crucial for intensivist clinicians to identify the cause to prevent disability 21 and emergency medical policy applications. Causes, clinical courses, and outcomes Infections, CNS disorders, digestive issues, cardiovascular events, and trauma are leading causes of acute coma. Our research results are consistent with international findings, with infection being the most common cause 22 23 . Acute coma causes differ based on geography 24 or age 22 . For instance, poisoning contributes to approximately one-third of unconsciousness cases in Nordic countries 24 . In children, common causes are intoxication, epilepsy, infection, and traumatic brain injury 17 . In adults and older adults, CNS and infectious disorders are more common 17 20 . The prominence of digestive causes for acute coma in our cohort may be due to the prevalence of hepatitis and hepatocellular carcinoma in Taiwan 25 . To facilitate a broader understanding of public health implications related to the potential etiologies and mechanisms underlying acute coma, and to enable meaningful comparisons with existing literature, we have classified the etiologies of acute coma into three major categories: neurological, medical, and functional factors 5 6 26 . This categorization approach aids in the development of targeted intervention strategies and informs policy-making. Neurological causes account for about one-third of cases, while non-neurological causes comprise the remaining two-thirds 27 . Schmidt (2017) reported that neurological and medical etiologies each contributed to about 50% of acute coma cases 5 . Functional or psychogenic coma constituted around 5% of cases. It is worth further exploring the causes of coma resulting from functional factors. The clinical course of acute coma varies due to differing underlying causes or etiologies 9 22 . Over half of first-ever acute coma patients required hospitalization or faced mortality, whereas the other near half demonstrated reversible outcomes. Short-term in-hospital mortality rate for patients with acute coma is about 5–11% 3 19 28 with longer follow-up reaching 25% 28 . Our study found that 27.60% of acute coma cases were attributed to neurological etiology, and within the mortality group, 38.16% of cases had a neurological cause. This supports prior research indicating that clinical course is highly dependent on etiology 22 . Syncope and seizures are generally believed to be the most common causes of reversible coma. However, in our study, these two common causes accounted for only 1.33% of cases of overall acute coma. This may support researchers' definition of coma as a state of prolonged sustained unconsciousness lasting at least one hour 29 . Our emergency physicians may better understand syncope and seizure, improving diagnostic accuracy 30 . Study showed that twenty percent of patients with acute coma may have already been reversible on admission 28 . If these patients are monitored for two months after hospitalization, one-third of them may fully recover consciousness 31 . Our study found that approximately 45.49% of patients had reversible coma. The higher proportion of reversible coma in our study may reflect a more lenient coding of coma or the higher quality of emergency medical care by emergency physicians in our study. These results suggest that the outcome of acute coma is highly dependent on the underlying cause and severity of the condition 32 . Regarding long-term outcomes, one-quarter of patients with first-ever acute coma necessitated ICU admission, and forty percent required LSTs within one year. The high percentage of patients in the LSTs group, who require long-term care and have a high mortality rate, emphasizes the need for improved management strategies for patients with acute coma 7 . Incidence Our study found an acute coma event rate of 4.23 visits per 1,000 ED visits, consistent with the Schmidt et al. (2019) ED cohort study 28 . However, our results differ from another study that reported 0.29–0.40 cases of coma per 1,000 ED visits 33 . Based on the ICD code approach, studies suggested that acute coma is about 0.93-5% of all ED visits 27 34 . Pediatric non-trauma coma studies also have reported incidences ranging from 0.3 to 1.6 per 1,000 person-years 22 . This disparity in results may be attributed to differences in research questions, study design, study population, or definitions 35 . We investigated the incidence rates of acute coma in different age groups and temporal trends. The highest incidence rate of acute coma was observed in the elderly age group, emphasizing the significance of this public health concern in the aging population. However, there is also some variability in the incidence rates over time. We found that the incidence rate stabilized at around 1 per 1,000 person-years from 2007 to 2015 and observed a significant mean decrease in the incidence rate in 2016 compared to previous years. Specifically, there was a significant mean decrease from 0.73 per 1,000 person-years in 2016 to 0.63 per 1,000 person-years in 2017. One possible explanation for the decrease in acute coma incidence during 2016–2017 is the transition from the ICD-9 to ICD-10 coding system in 2015. We also found that there was no significant difference in the number of ED visits between 2014 and 2017 (5,904,262 vs 5,945,444, respectively). Thus, the significant change in acute coma incidence could be an artifact of the ICD coding transition effect 36 . Strengths and Limitations This study has several strengths and limitations. Strengths include using nationwide longitudinal data to observe first-ever acute coma patterns, enabling tracking of clinical progression. The average post-acute coma mortality occurring seven years highlights its importance as a risk factor and common pathway for mortality. Additionally, the study employed AHRQ CCS methodology, facilitating regular monitoring of acute coma clinical information and enabling tailored intervention plans. The present study has several limitations that need to be acknowledged. Firstly, the absence of a coma scale to accurately define the first-ever acute coma cohort represents a significant limitation. Instead, the study relied on acute coma-related diagnoses coded by emergency physicians in the ED, potentially leading to an underestimation of acute coma incidence and compromising the accuracy of identifying the causes of coma. Additionally, the conversion between ICD-9 and ICD-10 coding systems may introduce inaccuracies in estimating coma-related diagnoses due to potential discrepancies and inconsistencies in classification. Consequently, the reliability of the results may be affected. Furthermore, it is important to recognize that the acute coma diagnosis employed in this study may not fully capture the underlying causes or medical utilization, as multiple contributing pathologies could be involved due to potential multiple underlying pathologies 28 . The complexity of coma etiology, along with the potential presence of various underlying factors, may limit the accuracy of attributing the diagnosis to a single cause. Moreover, a small proportion (about 2%) of acute coma patients presented in the ED lacked further diagnostic information, which reflects the challenge in diagnosing cases of coma with unknown origins and introduces potential uncertainty and incomplete data in the analysis. Another limitation is the reliance on data limited to the year 2017, preventing the examination of the potential effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. Incorporating the impact of the pandemic would have enhanced the understanding of the significance of infections and central nervous system-related causes in estimating acute coma incidence. Finally, it should be noted that this study did not utilize the World Health Organization's (WHO) World Standard Population for age-specific rates adjustment, which may limit the generalizability and comparability of the findings with other studies that utilize standardized rates based on the WHO standard populations. These limitations should be considered when interpreting the study's results, and future research should address these limitations to enhance the robustness and applicability of the findings. CONCLUSION Acute coma often represents a common pathway of organ dysfunction with diverse causes or etiologies, significantly impacting mortality and disability. Our study demonstrates the innovative use of ICD code aggregation to CCS in acute coma clinical study, providing valuable insights into its clinical nature. This research model has the potential to facilitate international comparative studies of acute coma characteristics using health databases.

urgent attention and has significant impacts on patients and healthcare professionals \u003csup\u003e1\u003c/sup\u003e. It is characterized by profound failure of the neurological system responsible for maintaining arousal and awareness, leading to either a reflex response or no response to external stimuli at all \u003csup\u003e2\u003c/sup\u003e. Prior studies estimate that 1\u0026ndash;5% of patients presenting to the emergency department (ED) have a disturbance in consciousness \u003csup\u003e3 4\u003c/sup\u003e. Emergency care researchers often categorize acute coma into three etiological factors: primary CNS disease, severe medical conditions that affect the CNS secondarily, or functional such as psychogenic disorder \u003csup\u003e5 6\u003c/sup\u003e. The clinical course of acute coma has been classified into three main categories: reversible coma, where patients recover quickly after ED management and can be discharged without any functional deficits; mortality group consisting of patients who do not survive their coma event despite medical interventions; and hospitalization group, which includes patients requiring hospitalization that may need intensive care or life-sustaining treatments (LSTs), or complicated with long-term disabilities \u003csup\u003e7 8\u003c/sup\u003e. Major challenge in studying acute coma is its heterogeneous nature, with multiple contributing factors often present in a single patient. Variations in acute coma study results may arise due to differences in definitions, cause classifications, and follow-up periods \u003csup\u003e9\u003c/sup\u003e. These factors can affect outcomes and complicate direct comparisons between studies, underscoring the need for standardized methodologies \u003csup\u003e10\u003c/sup\u003e. Despite the urgent need for a better understanding clinical nature of acute coma, there is a lack of large-scale longitudinal studies that can comprehensively address the incidence, causes, clinical course, and outcomes of acute coma.\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) has developed the Clinical Classification Software (CCS) to provide a standardized method for classifying diagnosis codes into CCS categories based on clinical characteristics \u003csup\u003e11 12\u003c/sup\u003e. The CCS categories employ the International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision, Clinical Modification (ICD-9-CM) and Tenth Revision, Clinical Modification (ICD-10-CM) classification systems to aggregate large numbers of ICD diagnostic codes into 285 clinically meaningful categories, thereby making clinical research more feasible.

The NHIRD, managed by the Ministry of Health and Welfare, offered a comprehensive dataset with information on demographics, comorbidities, hospitalization, functional status, and mortality. This study was conducted with the approval of the local ethics board and involved no direct patient interaction. We carried out a retrospective analysis of claims data, ensuring all personal identifiers were encrypted to uphold patient confidentiality.\u003c/p\u003e \u003c/div\u003e \u003cdiv id=\"Sec4\" class=\"Section2\"\u003e \u003ch2\u003eAcute coma participants definition\u003c/h2\u003e \u003cp\u003eGiven the nature of this study, we utilized the NHIRD dataset to investigate acute coma incidences. However, it should be noted that the NHIRD dataset lacks specific indicators like the Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) to represent coma status. Consequently, we relied on the judgment of emergency physicians in diagnosing acute coma instances, especially in cases where there was no explicit diagnosis but an indication of coma in the ED's diagnoses. We employed International Classification of Diseases (ICD) codes to define acute coma objectively. These codes encompass a range of acute coma conditions, including \"780.01\" for comatose, \"780.09\" for other alterations of consciousness, \"R40.0\" for somnolence, \"R40.1\" for stupor, \"R40.2\" for unspecified coma, and \"S06.7\" for intracranial injury-related coma. Therefore, our study population consisted of cases that included any of these codes within the three diagnoses upon ED discharge records and remained as the final research cohort (Fig.\u0026nbsp;\u003cspan refid=\"Fig2\" class=\"InternalRef\"\u003e1\u003c/span\u003e). The present study implemented several exclusion criteria to ensure precise estimation of the cause, disease progression, and clinical outcomes associated with acute coma. First, we omitted cases lacking comprehensive sociodemographic data. Second, we excluded those who were undergoing life-sustaining treatments or were disabled or residing in a nursing home prior to the acute coma event. Additionally, cases diagnosed with acute coma in the ED that CCS could not further classify were removed from the study. To rule out hospitalizations potentially unrelated to the acute coma events, we excluded samples hospitalized more than 14 days following the acute coma.\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c/p\u003e \u003c/div\u003e \u003cdiv id=\"Sec5\" class=\"Section2\"\u003e \u003ch2\u003eIncidence estimates\u003c/h2\u003e \u003cp\u003eWe estimated the annual acute coma event rate from 2000 to 2017, with acute coma events as the unit of analysis.

Common reversible causes included infection (15.72%), trauma (10.89%), digestive (10.00%), women's health and perinatal care (9.56%), and CNS (8.74%). Hospitalization for acute coma frequently resulted from CNS (17.08%), infection (16.34%), cardiovascular (9.51%), digestive (9.30%), and diabetes and insulin (6.45%). Leading causes of death were CNS (27.40%), cardiovascular (12.41%), digestive (9.73%), trauma (9.10%), and infection (8.87%). Medical etiologies were the primary factor (66.75%), with neurological (27.60%) and functional (5.65%) etiologies also contributing. Short-term outcomes indicated 45.49% of cases left the ED without sequelae, 12.85% experienced 30-day mortality, and 41.66% necessitated hospitalization within seven days. Elderly patients had a significantly higher mortality rate of 62.56% compared to 11.56% for younger patients. The one-year follow-up showed ICU treatment (26.54%), LSTs (41.09%), rehabilitation (14.23%), disability (6.57%), and nursing care (1.88%).\u003c/p\u003e \u003c/div\u003e \u003cdiv id=\"Sec12\" class=\"Section2\"\u003e \u003ch2\u003eMultivariate analysis of acute coma\u003c/h2\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe GEE analysis identified covariates significantly associated with increased acute coma mortality, including females, older age, higher Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) scores, low income, and rural residence (Table\u0026nbsp;\u003cspan refid=\"Tab3\" class=\"InternalRef\"\u003e3\u003c/span\u003e).

This study aims to explore the incidence density, causes, clinical courses, and outcomes of acute coma. Several methodological and result issues warrant discussion.\u003c/p\u003e \u003cdiv id=\"Sec15\" class=\"Section2\"\u003e \u003ch2\u003eMethodology discussion\u003c/h2\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn our 18-year longitudinal retrospective cohort study, we utilize the ICD coding system alongside the CCS method to navigate the complex etiology of acute coma. This complexity, stemming from an array of reversible and time-sensitive factors, creates challenges in synthesizing diverse clinical causes into a unified cohort for claims-based research. Previous studies have often relied on medical record reviews \u003csup\u003e17\u003c/sup\u003e or rigorously designed cohort studies\u003csup\u003e18\u003c/sup\u003e, lacking a comprehensive and longitudinal perspective. To bridge this research gap, we have devised an innovative clinical research model that integrates big data analytics with clinical investigation. This approach offers a novel framework for examining the multifaceted clinical scenarios related to acute coma through claims-based data, thereby opening new avenues for neuroscientific research and enhancing emergency medical decision-making systems.\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eStudy design, population and cohort definition\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Taiwan NHIRD, encompassing the entire population and offering comprehensive medical services, facilitated a thorough analysis of acute coma's clinical nature. Besides, The large cohort of over 200,000 patients offered a robust population representation. Moreover, we defined the cohort based on one impaired consciousness in the ED study, where the average hospitalization duration was 6.4 days. Thereforee we included acute coma onset and hospitalization within seven days as our study cohort \u003csup\u003e19\u003c/sup\u003e. By excluding patients with prior nursing home residence or disability status, provids a better understanding of the true incidence and outcomes of first-ever acute coma. Meanwhile, the lack of clinical coma scale data raises concerns about the methodology accuracy, which relied on ICD coding and the CCS method. Our study adopted a broader definition of acute coma, using ICD codes, covering various alterations of consciousness such as somnolence, stupor, unspecified coma, and intracranial injury-related coma. Our study adopted a broad range of acute coma diagnosis codes to capture various clinical scenarios \u003csup\u003e20\u003c/sup\u003e. We used ICD coding methodology covering the qualitative spectrum of 'decreased consciousness,' including somnolence, stupor, coma, and quantitative GCS score ranges \u003csup\u003e20\u003c/sup\u003e. We also included the current quantitative approach to coma assessment, coding GCS scores of 13\u0026ndash;15 as R40.0, 9\u0026ndash;12 as R40.1, and \u0026le;\u0026thinsp;8 as R40.2. This approach ensured a thorough representation of acute coma in our research sample.\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDefined of acute coma cause\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIntegrating CCS with the ICD coding system in clinical research potentially offers a holistic and nuanced methodology for categorizing complex clinical data into clinically meaningful classes \u003csup\u003e14\u003c/sup\u003e. While established frameworks for transforming a myriad of ICD codes into clinically relevant categories that can guide clinical decision-making, inform policy interventions, or enable regular monitoring are not yet widespread \u003csup\u003e12\u003c/sup\u003e, In our study, we utilized CCS to condense 285 CCS categories into 23 clinically relevant causes of acute coma, rendering the study practically feasible and enabling the in-depth analysis of acute coma's multifaceted clinical manifestations. This approach facilitates large-scale, longitudinal population-based studies in EDs, optimizing approaches to address acute coma's clinical nature.\u003c/p\u003e \u003c/div\u003e \u003cdiv id=\"Sec16\" class=\"Section2\"\u003e \u003ch2\u003eResults discussion\u003c/h2\u003e \u003cp\u003eUnderstanding the clinical characteristics of acute coma makes it crucial for intensivist clinicians to identify the cause to prevent disability \u003csup\u003e21\u003c/sup\u003e and emergency medical policy applications.\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCauses, clinical courses, and outcomes\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eInfections, CNS disorders, digestive issues, cardiovascular events, and trauma are leading causes of acute coma. Our research results are consistent with international findings, with infection being the most common cause \u003csup\u003e22 23\u003c/sup\u003e. Acute coma causes differ based on geography \u003csup\u003e24\u003c/sup\u003e or age \u003csup\u003e22\u003c/sup\u003e. For instance, poisoning contributes to approximately one-third of unconsciousness cases in Nordic countries \u003csup\u003e24\u003c/sup\u003e. In children, common causes are intoxication, epilepsy, infection, and traumatic brain injury \u003csup\u003e17\u003c/sup\u003e. In adults and older adults, CNS and infectious disorders are more common \u003csup\u003e17 20\u003c/sup\u003e. The prominence of digestive causes for acute coma in our cohort may be due to the prevalence of hepatitis and hepatocellular carcinoma in Taiwan \u003csup\u003e25\u003c/sup\u003e. To facilitate a broader understanding of public health implications related to the potential etiologies and mechanisms underlying acute coma, and to enable meaningful comparisons with existing literature, we have classified the etiologies of acute coma into three major categories: neurological, medical, and functional factors\u003csup\u003e5 6 26\u003c/sup\u003e. This categorization approach aids in the development of targeted intervention strategies and informs policy-making. Neurological causes account for about one-third of cases, while non-neurological causes comprise the remaining two-thirds \u003csup\u003e27\u003c/sup\u003e. Schmidt (2017) reported that neurological and medical etiologies each contributed to about 50% of acute coma cases \u003csup\u003e5\u003c/sup\u003e. Functional or psychogenic coma constituted around 5% of cases. It is worth further exploring the causes of coma resulting from functional factors.\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe clinical course of acute coma varies due to differing underlying causes or etiologies \u003csup\u003e9 22\u003c/sup\u003e. Over half of first-ever acute coma patients required hospitalization or faced mortality, whereas the other near half demonstrated reversible outcomes. Short-term in-hospital mortality rate for patients with acute coma is about 5\u0026ndash;11% \u003csup\u003e3 19 28\u003c/sup\u003e with longer follow-up reaching 25% \u003csup\u003e28\u003c/sup\u003e. Our study found that 27.60% of acute coma cases were attributed to neurological etiology, and within the mortality group, 38.16% of cases had a neurological cause. This supports prior research indicating that clinical course is highly dependent on etiology \u003csup\u003e22\u003c/sup\u003e. Syncope and seizures are generally believed to be the most common causes of reversible coma. However, in our study, these two common causes accounted for only 1.33% of cases of overall acute coma. This may support researchers' definition of coma as a state of prolonged sustained unconsciousness lasting at least one hour \u003csup\u003e29\u003c/sup\u003e. Our emergency physicians may better understand syncope and seizure, improving diagnostic accuracy \u003csup\u003e30\u003c/sup\u003e. Study showed that twenty percent of patients with acute coma may have already been reversible on admission \u003csup\u003e28\u003c/sup\u003e. If these patients are monitored for two months after hospitalization, one-third of them may fully recover consciousness \u003csup\u003e31\u003c/sup\u003e. Our study found that approximately 45.49% of patients had reversible coma. The higher proportion of reversible coma in our study may reflect a more lenient coding of coma or the higher quality of emergency medical care by emergency physicians in our study. These results suggest that the outcome of acute coma is highly dependent on the underlying cause and severity of the condition \u003csup\u003e32\u003c/sup\u003e. Regarding long-term outcomes, one-quarter of patients with first-ever acute coma necessitated ICU admission, and forty percent required LSTs within one year. The high percentage of patients in the LSTs group, who require long-term care and have a high mortality rate, emphasizes the need for improved management strategies for patients with acute coma \u003csup\u003e7\u003c/sup\u003e.\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIncidence\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eOur study found an acute coma event rate of 4.23 visits per 1,000 ED visits, consistent with the Schmidt et al. (2019) ED cohort study \u003csup\u003e28\u003c/sup\u003e. However, our results differ from another study that reported 0.29\u0026ndash;0.40 cases of coma per 1,000 ED visits \u003csup\u003e33\u003c/sup\u003e. Based on the ICD code approach, studies suggested that acute coma is about 0.93-5% of all ED visits \u003csup\u003e27 34\u003c/sup\u003e. Pediatric non-trauma coma studies also have reported incidences ranging from 0.3 to 1.6 per 1,000 person-years \u003csup\u003e22\u003c/sup\u003e. This disparity in results may be attributed to differences in research questions, study design, study population, or definitions \u003csup\u003e35\u003c/sup\u003e.\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWe investigated the incidence rates of acute coma in different age groups and temporal trends. The highest incidence rate of acute coma was observed in the elderly age group, emphasizing the significance of this public health concern in the aging population. However, there is also some variability in the incidence rates over time. We found that the incidence rate stabilized at around 1 per 1,000 person-years from 2007 to 2015 and observed a significant mean decrease in the incidence rate in 2016 compared to previous years. Specifically, there was a significant mean decrease from 0.73 per 1,000 person-years in 2016 to 0.63 per 1,000 person-years in 2017. One possible explanation for the decrease in acute coma incidence during 2016\u0026ndash;2017 is the transition from the ICD-9 to ICD-10 coding system in 2015. We also found that there was no significant difference in the number of ED visits between 2014 and 2017 (5,904,262 vs 5,945,444, respectively). Thus, the significant change in acute coma incidence could be an artifact of the ICD coding transition effect \u003csup\u003e36\u003c/sup\u003e.\u003c/p\u003e \u003c/div\u003e \u003cdiv id=\"Sec17\" class=\"Section2\"\u003e \u003ch2\u003eStrengths and Limitations\u003c/h2\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis study has several strengths and limitations. Strengths include using nationwide longitudinal data to observe first-ever acute coma patterns, enabling tracking of clinical progression. The average post-acute coma mortality occurring seven years highlights its importance as a risk factor and common pathway for mortality. Additionally, the study employed AHRQ CCS methodology, facilitating regular monitoring of acute coma clinical information and enabling tailored intervention plans.\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe present study has several limitations that need to be acknowledged. Firstly, the absence of a coma scale to accurately define the first-ever acute coma cohort represents a significant limitation. Instead, the study relied on acute coma-related diagnoses coded by emergency physicians in the ED, potentially leading to an underestimation of acute coma incidence and compromising the accuracy of identifying the causes of coma. Additionally, the conversion between ICD-9 and ICD-10 coding systems may introduce inaccuracies in estimating coma-related diagnoses due to potential discrepancies and inconsistencies in classification. Consequently, the reliability of the results may be affected. Furthermore, it is important to recognize that the acute coma diagnosis employed in this study may not fully capture the underlying causes or medical utilization, as multiple contributing pathologies could be involved due to potential multiple underlying pathologies \u003csup\u003e28\u003c/sup\u003e. The complexity of coma etiology, along with the potential presence of various underlying factors, may limit the accuracy of attributing the diagnosis to a single cause. Moreover, a small proportion (about 2%) of acute coma patients presented in the ED lacked further diagnostic information, which reflects the challenge in diagnosing cases of coma with unknown origins and introduces potential uncertainty and incomplete data in the analysis. Another limitation is the reliance on data limited to the year 2017, preventing the examination of the potential effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. Incorporating the impact of the pandemic would have enhanced the understanding of the significance of infections and central nervous system-related causes in estimating acute coma incidence. Finally, it should be noted that this study did not utilize the World Health Organization's (WHO) World Standard Population for age-specific rates adjustment, which may limit the generalizability and comparability of the findings with other studies that utilize standardized rates based on the WHO standard populations. These limitations should be considered when interpreting the study's results, and future research should address these limitations to enhance the robustness and applicability of the findings.\u003c/p\u003e \u003c/div\u003e"},{"header":"CONCLUSION","content":"\u003cp\u003eAcute coma often represents a common pathway of organ dysfunction with diverse causes or etiologies, significantly impacting mortality and disability.

Clinical Classification Software (CCS) was employed to categorize the causes of acute coma. We examined the characteristics of acute coma cases, age-specific incidence rates, underlying causes, and clinical outcomes such as reversible coma, hospitalization, and 30-day mortality. Additionally, we assessed functional outcomes at a one-year follow-up. Long-term factors influencing mortality were ascertained using Cox regression.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eResults\u003c/strong\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAmong 99,217,322 ED visits between 2000 and 2017, 419,480 acute coma events were identified, with an event rate of 4.23 per 1,000 ED visits and an incidence rate of 0.93 per 1,000 person-years. We analyzed 205,747 first-ever acute coma cases, predominantly male (58.90%), aged 58.27 years (SD 23.04). Infection and CNS causes were predominant. CNS and drug-related causes contributed to increased 30-day mortality, while psychiatric, alcohol, women's health and perinatal care, and seizure are causes linked to reversible coma. Patients needed intensive care (26.54%), life-sustaining treatments (41.09%), or disability (6.57%). Generalized estimating equations revealed that CNS (aOR, 0.68; 95% CI, 0.62 to 0.74; p \u0026lt; .0001) and drug-related causes (aOR, 0.72; 95% CI, 0.65 to 0.81; p \u0026lt; .0001) were less likely to result in reversible coma, suggesting higher 30-day mortality risk factors. Cox regression showed drugs (aHR, 1.30, 95% CI 1.20 to 1.41, p \u0026lt; .001), neoplasm (aHR, 1.18, 95% CI 1.11 to 1.25, p \u0026lt; .001), and symptoms (aHR, 1.44, 95% CI 1.24 to 1.67, p \u0026lt; .001) elevated the long-term death risk.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eConclusion\u003c/strong\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur study demonstrates the use of ICD codes aggregation to CCS in acute coma clinical study, providing insights into its clinical nature.\u003c/p\u003e","manuscriptTitle":"Incidence, Etiology, and Clinical Outcomes of Acute Coma","msid":"","msnumber":"","nonDraftVersions":[{"code":1,"date":"2024-08-09 21:30:53","doi":"10.21203/rs.3.rs-4697186/v1","editorialEvents":[{"type":"communityComments","content":0}],"status":"published","journal":{"display":true,"email":"[email protected]","identity":"researchsquare","isNatureJournal":false,"hasQc":true,"allowDirectSubmit":true,"externalIdentity":"","sideBox":"","snPcode":"","submissionUrl":"/submission","title":"Research Square","twitterHandle":"researchsquare","acdcEnabled":true,"dfaEnabled":false,"editorialSystem":"","reportingPortfolio":"","inReviewEnabled":false,"inReviewRevisionsEnabled":true}}],"origin":"","ownerIdentity":"4515a87e-1924-4804-b8ad-ce9bb8297d48","owner":[],"postedDate":"August 9th, 2024","published":true,"recentEditorialEvents":[],"rejectedJournal":[],"revision":"","amendment":"","status":"posted","subjectAreas":[],"tags":[],"updatedAt":"2024-11-25T20:23:31+00:00","versionOfRecord":[],"versionCreatedAt":"2024-08-09 21:30:53","video":"","vorDoi":"","vorDoiUrl":"","workflowStages":[]},"version":"v1","identity":"rs-4697186","journalConfig":"researchsquare"},"__N_SSP":true},"page":"/article/[identity]/[[...version]]","query":{"redirect":"/article/rs-4697186","identity":"rs-4697186","version":["v1"]},"buildId":"qtupq5eGEP_6zYnWcrvyt","isFallback":false,"isExperimentalCompile":false,"dynamicIds":[84888],"gssp":true,"scriptLoader":[]}
