What is DPC?Japanese version of Diagnosis Related Groups
Diagnosis Procedure Combination (DPC) is a diagnosis-dominant case-mix system, comprised of 18 major diagnostic categories (MDC), 520 diagnostic groups, and 2,347 case-mix groups.

The DPC Database is a patient discharge and administrative claims database.
Data are compiled between July and December each year by the DPC Research Group (Chief: Shinya Matsuda MD, PhD) funded by the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare, Japan.
The DPC Database
Administrative Claims Database in the US
(1)Nationwide Inpatient Sample (NIS) Database-includes 8 million patients per year from 1,044 hospitals in 40 states, representing approx. 20% of all inpatients in the US.
(2) Medicare Claim Database-includes all patients ≥ 65 yrs-linked with Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) program of cancer registries(SEER-Medicare Linked Database).
Japanese DPC Database includes around 3 million inpatients per half a year, representing approx. 45% of all acute care inpatients in Japan.

DataThe database include patient information on -Diagnoses coded with the ICD-10 codes-Procedures -Comorbidities at admission (入院時併存症)-Complications after admission (入院後合併症)-Drugs and Devices used-In-hospital mortality(在院死亡)-Length of stay(在院日数)-Costs
-Cancer stage, Chemotherapy, Radiotherapy-Coma Scale-ASA, NYHA, Hugh-Jones, Child-Pugh-Burn Index-Pregnancy-Smoking indexetc.

Operative Mortality following Cancer Surgery 2007
Surgical Volume and Operative Outcomes(手術件数と手術成績)
Studies have indicated that higher operative caseload volume is associated with lower surgical mortality after complex surgical procedures.
However, little is known about the relationship between operative volume and postoperative complications.
Postoperative complications followingNephrectomy for Renal Cancer (n=7988)Urinary tract infection 117 (1.5%)Ileus 103 (1.3%) Surgical site infection 97 (1.2%) Cardiac events 87 (1.1%) Sepsis 63 (0.8%) Respiratory complications 58 (0.7%) Renal failure 46 (0.6%) Venous thromboembolism 44 (0.4%) Pancreatitis 21 (0.3%) Stroke 17 (0.2%) Peritonitis 14 (0.2%)
Overall, 595 patients (7.4%) had at least one complication.The in-hospital rate of death was 0.84% (n=67).
Hospital volume and outcomes
*Hospital volume: the annual number of nephrectomy perfomed at each hospital
Incidence of Malignant Hyperthermia(悪性高熱)
Malignant hyperthermia (MH) is a life-threatening pharmacogenetic disease that occurs during general anesthesia.
A potential risk of MH is the use of volatile anesthetic agents (揮発性麻酔薬) and muscle relaxants (筋弛緩薬).
The true incidence of MH remains unclear because of a paucity of universal reporting.

Impact of Drug-eluting Stents (DES) on Treatment Option Mix for Coronary Artery Disease in Japan
Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI)-Bare metal stent (BMS)-Drug-eluting stent (DES)
Coronary artery bypass grafting(CABG) -on-pump CABG-off-pump CABG
DES was introduced in September 2004 in Japan.

DES not only replaced BMS, but also expanded patients’ eligibility for PCI.
Increase in PCI was concurrent with a temporary reduction in on-pump CABG but in the increase in off-pump CABG.

Measles in Japan, 2007-2008
America was declared free from endemic measles transmission in 2002.In Europe, 29,000 measles infections were reported in 2004.In Japan, measles outbreaks occurred in 2001 and 2007.
Measles sometimes accompanies diverse complications, including pneumonia, otitis media, and central nervous system involvement.
We searched for measles-related complications and hospitalizations in Japan in 2007-2008, using the DPC Database.

Age Distribution
Age distribution revealed two peaks in ≤4 and 15-29 years old.Measles-mumps-rubella (MMR)vaccine failure in late 1980s and early 1990s could be associated with the high incidence in patients aged 15-29 years.
Venomous snake bites in JapanAbout 15% of 3000 species of snakes worldwide are venomous, including rattlesnakes, cottonmouths and copperheads in North America, cobras, mambas and kraits in tropical zones,and mamushi (A. blomhoffii) and habu (T. flavoviridis) in Japan.

Snake venom increases capillary membrane permeability, which leads to extravasation of electrolytes, albumin, and red blood cells into the bite site. Edema, hypoalbuminemia, and hemoconcentration can result in hypovolemic shock and acute renal failure.
