1 METHODSA retrospective chart review was performed for subjects (n= 361) born in Maryland, discharged home from neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) across the state between July 1, 2013, and June 6, 2019, and followed in an outpatient BPD clinic. All subjects were born at≤ 32 weeks gestation and diagnosed with BPD based on the 2001 National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute consensus statement. 2 Electronic medical record data were reviewed for outpatient subspecialty visits (pulmonary, cardiology, otolaryngology, and gastroenterology) for a 2-year period following initial NICU discharge. Individual household income was estimated based on residential zip code. The median income in the state of Maryland at the time of this study was $84,805. Insurance status, defined as public or private, was determined based on coverage at the first outpatient visit following NICU discharge. Race/ethnicity was self-reported. Caregivers were consented per protocol as approved by the Johns Hopkins University Institutional Review Board. Descriptive features of subpopulations were compared using χ 2 and t-tests.2 RESULTSOf the 361 subjects, 185 (51.2%) had public insurance and 240 (66.5%) had estimated household incomes below the state median, and these measures of SES were closely aligned (p< 0.001)(Supporting Information: Tables 1 and 2). Both markers of low SES were also associated with self-reported Black race, and insurance was associated with Hispanic ethnicity (Supporting Information: Table 3). Lower birth weights were seen with those with public insurance and self-reported Black subjects and earlier gestational ages were seen with self-reported Black and Hispanic subjects.
