Description
Dominguez and coauthors track real-world use of a skin repair matrix in head surgery. The matrix helps rebuild soft tissue in head and neck work. Few real-world studies log how much care such patients use. Claims data can fill that gap at large scale.
The team used two large United States claims databases. Records ran from late 2015 to early 2022. Adults had head or neck surgery with the matrix on the same day. All had at least 30 days of cover before and after. The team logged surgery types and return visits. Thirty-day re-do rates were a key outcome of interest.
