Monkeypox (Mpox) is a reemerging, neglected viral disease. By May 2023, worldwide Mpox cases surpassed 87,000. Predictive factors for hospitalization with Mpox are lacking.We aim to compare clinical characteristics and outcomes in hospitalized and nonhospitalized patients with Mpox infection.A multicenter retrospective case-control cohort of patients with Mpox infection.We performed a propensity score match analysis from a global health network (TrinetX). We compare clinical characteristics and outcomes between hospitalized and nonhospitalized patients with Mpox.Of 1477 patients, 6% were hospitalized, 52% required an ED visit, and 29% received treatment at urgent care. After propensity score matching, 80 patients remained in each group. Hospitalizations were more common among Black persons (51% versus 33%, p?=?0.01), people with HIV (50% versus 20%, p?
