At AxeUSCE, we recognize the challenges clinicians, researchers, and students face in balancing demanding professional responsibilities with the need for advanced research training. To support your academic and career goals, we have developed a structured, lecture-based program that equips you with the knowledge and skills to effectively use the National Inpatient Sample (NIS) – Analysis on STATA for high-quality research and publications, including analysis using STATA.

The NIS Analysis on STATA course is designed for physicians, medical students, and healthcare professionals who want to strengthen their research credentials and enhance their competitiveness for U.S. residency and fellowship Match programs. National Inpatient Sample and its Analysis on STATA is part of this valuable training. Unlike live Zoom classes, this program is delivered through recorded video lectures, allowing you to learn at your own pace with lifetime access.

What is the National Inpatient Sample (NIS)?

The National Inpatient Sample (NIS) is the largest publicly available, all-payer inpatient care database in the United States. Its analysis using STATA is a key focus of this course. National Inpatient Sample (NIS) – Analysis on STATA focuses on this powerful tool for health services and outcomes research. It contains detailed information on hospital admissions, diagnoses, procedures, demographics, and outcomes, making it one of the most powerful tools for health services and outcomes research. Its size and design allow for robust national and regional estimates, making it indispensable for:

• Identifying healthcare trends
• Evaluating quality of care in a systematic NIS–STATA analysis
• Supporting health policy decisions
• Conducting advanced epidemiological and outcomes research

Course Content

1. Introduction to NIS and STATA Setup – Overview of NIS, its structure, and preparing STATA for analysis.
2. Importing and Preparing NIS Data in STATA – Data import, cleaning, and preparation for research.
3. Descriptive Statistics and Basic Analysis – Exploring demographics, hospital characteristics, and outcomes.
4. Advanced Statistical Analysis with NIS – Logistic regression, advanced modeling, and hypothesis testing using NIS-STATA analysis methods.
5. From Results to Publication – Converting analysis into publishable tables, figures, and reports.
