Description
Craig Coleman and co-authors present a 2024 study of hospital stays for a fungal brain infection called coccidioidal meningitis. The disease needs lifelong, forceful care and often sends patients back to hospital. They use a national US sample of stays from 2019 to 2021. More than two thousand stays were counted. Most involved procedures tied to the infection. Stays ran about thirteen days on average, and each stay cost close to fifty thousand dollars. About one in thirteen patients died in hospital.
