Figure 2. Association of Race and Sex With 30-Day Readmissions by LVAD Propensity.

Figure 2.

The posterior estimations of the marginal effect size with 95% CIs of race and sex on 1-year survival after LVAD adjusted for clinical risk, distance to hospital, individual socioeconomic status, and neighborhood effects. Compared with White patients, Black beneficiaries at a lower propensity to receive an LVAD had a trend toward improved survival in the year after LVAD (A). Women had similar survival across all LVAD propensity (B). Compared with White patients, Black beneficiaries at a lower propensity to receive an LVAD had increased 30-day readmissions after LVAD (C). Women had similar 30-day readmissions across all LVAD propensity (B). LVAD indicates left ventricular assist devices.
