Purpose: In recent decades, the incidence of herpes zoster (HZ) has been on the rise
.
Although there have been two HZ vaccines, since HZ and postherpetic neuralgia (PHN) occurred, there have been few studies on the incidence
.
Method: Using the non-identifying longitudinal administrative claims database of OptumLabs® data warehouse, the incidence rate of individuals who have been continuously registered in the database for ≥365 days and have no previous history of HZ or PHN was evaluated
.
Non-standardized and standardized incidence rates were calculated by year, 10-year-old age group, gender, and race/ethnicity
.
Results: 61066 HZ patients (median age, 56.
3 years [IQR: 43.
0, 68.
7] years; 59.
8% women; whites 70.
6%)
.
From 1994 to 2018, the incidence of HZ increased from 286.
0 (95% CI: 259.
