由于门诊护理敏感性疾病（ACSC）导致的住院治疗导致美国医疗系统的高发病率和经济负担。由于慢性ACSC的招生，特别是，成本超过30亿美元的美国医疗保健系统annually.Objectives and Methods本文介绍了目前的研究，由于慢性ACSC的住院负担的种族和民族的差异。对于这种叙述性的审查，我们评估了超过800个摘要从MEDLINE和谷歌学术和引用62 article.Results自1998年以来，种族和民族的差异，从慢性ACSC住院治疗增加了导致超过430，000非西班牙裔黑人之间的过度住院治疗相比，非西班牙裔whites.Conclusions慢性ACSC住院治疗的种族差异是普遍的在美国。有必要进行更多的研究的途径，通过个人的种族修改住院的风险，由于慢性ACSC。
Background Hospitalizations due to ambulatory care sensitive conditions (ACSCs) result in high morbidity and economic burden on the American healthcare system. Admissions due to chronic ACSCs, in particular, cost the American healthcare system over 30 billion dollars annually.Objectives and Methods This paper presents the current research on racial and ethnic disparities in the burden of hospitalizations due to chronic ACSCs. For this narrative review, we evaluated over 800 abstracts from MEDLINE and Google Scholar and cited 62 articles.Results Since 1998, racial and ethnic disparities in hospitalizations from chronic ACSCs have increased resulting in over 430,000 excess hospitalizations among non-Hispanic Blacks compared to non-Hispanic Whites.Conclusions Racial disparities in chronic ACSCs hospitalizations are pervasive in the USA. There is need for more research on the pathways through which an individual's race modifies the risk for hospitalizations due to chronic ACSCs.
