我们利用 2003 年至 2019 年公开的疾病控制与预防中心的 WONDER（流行病学研究广泛在线数据）数据库，评估了卵巢恶性肿瘤患者死者特征与死亡地点之间的关联。我们发现，黑人、美洲原住民、亚裔美国人和西班牙裔患者比白人患者更有可能在医院死亡，尽管医院死亡人数总体减少，临终关怀机构死亡人数总体增加。此外，受教育程度较低的患者更有可能死于护理机构，而不太可能死于临终关怀机构。尽管文化偏好可能有所贡献，但这些发现可能代表了少数种族和族裔群体癌症患者在获得姑息治疗方面的差异。版权所有 © 2023 美国妇产科学院。由 Wolters Kluwer Health, Inc. 出版。保留所有权利。

Using the publicly available Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's WONDER (Wide-ranging Online Data for Epidemiologic Research) database from 2003 to 2019, we evaluated associations between decedent characteristics and location of death for patients with ovarian malignancy. We found that Black, Native American, Asian American, and Hispanic patients were more likely to die in hospitals than White patients, despite an overall reduction in hospital deaths and an overall increase in hospice facility deaths. Additionally, patients with lesser educational attainment were more likely to die in nursing facilities and less likely to die in hospice facilities. Although there may be some contribution from cultural preferences, these findings may represent disparities in access to palliative care affecting people with cancer from racial and ethnic minoritized groups.Copyright © 2023 by the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists.
