Patient characteristics and exposures examined included age in years, gender, disease type (CD vs. UC), race (African American/Black, Asian, other/multiracial, White), tobacco use (current, former, never, unknown), and alcohol use (current, former, never, unknown), a diagnosis of anxiety or depression, Charlson comorbidity index (CCI) score, index admission length of stay (LOS) in days and hospital opioid use. To assess for cannabis use prior to hospitalization, a natural language search of admission documents was performed for the terms “marijuana”, “cannabis”, “pot” and “CBD”. Manual chart review was then performed to confirm cannabis use. Cannabis use was categorized as either active, past or none. Active cannabis use was further classified as medicinal, recreational, or unknown.
