英文摘要：
  Objective: To estimate the relationship between a hospital data breach and hospital quality outcome   Materials and Methods: Hospital data breaches reported to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services breach portal and the Privacy Rights Clearinghouse database were merged with the Medicare Hospital Compare data to assemble a panel of non-federal acutecare inpatient hospitals for years 2011 to 2015. The study panel included 2,619 hospitals. Changes in 30-day AMI mortality rate following a hospital data breach were estimated using a multivariate regression model based on a difference-in-differences approach.   Results: A data breach was associated with a 0.338[95% CI, 0.101-0.576] percentage point increase in the 30-day AMI mortality rate in the year following the breach and a 0.446[95% CI, 0.164-0.729] percentage point increase two years after the breach. For comparison, the median 30-day AMI mortality rate has been decreasing about 0.4 percentage points annually since 2011 due to progress in care. The magnitude of the breach impact on hospitals\' AMI mortality rates was comparable to a year\'s worth historical progress in reducing AMI mortality rates.   Conclusion: Hospital data breaches significantly increased the 30-day mortality rate for AMI. Data breaches may disrupt the processes of care that rely on health information technology. Financial costs to repair a breach may also divert resources away from patient care. Thus breached hospitals should carefully focus investments in security procedures, processes, and health information technology that jointly lead to better data security and improved patient outcomes.

中文摘要：
目的：评估医院数据泄露与医院质量结果之间的关系材料和方法：向美国卫生和公共服务部泄露门户和隐私权信息交换所数据库报告的医院数据泄露与医疗保险医院比较数据合并，以组成一个非联邦acutecare住院医院小组多年2011年至2015年。研究小组包括2619家医院。采用基于差异分析法的多元回归模型，估计医院数据泄露后30天AMI死亡率的变化。结果：数据泄露与泄露后一年30天AMI死亡率增加0.338【95%CI，0.101-0.576】个百分点相关，泄露后两年AMI死亡率增加0.446【95%CI，0.164-0.729】个百分点。相比之下，由于护理方面的进步，自2011年以来，30天AMI死亡率中位数每年下降约0.4个百分点。违约对医院AMI死亡率的影响程度与一年来降低AMI死亡率的历史进展相当。结论：医院数据泄露显著增加了AMI的30天死亡率。数据泄露可能会破坏依赖卫生信息技术的护理流程。修复漏洞的财务成本也可能会转移患者护理的资源。因此，违规医院应谨慎地将投资重点放在安全程序、流程和卫生信息技术上，共同提高数据安全性和改善患者预后。
