Despite the increasing use of biologics in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), real‐world data about outcomes in the era of biologics remain inconclusive. Aims To investigate trends in surgeries, hospitalisations and medication use in patients with IBD in a multinational, population‐based cohort Methods We included 42,894 patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) and 24,864 with Crohn's disease (CD) who were diagnosed between 2010 and 2017 in Denmark, Norway and Sweden. We extracted data about surgeries, hospitalisations and medications from national registries and compared across countries and diagnosis years. Results Between 2010 and 2017, 2‐year surgery rates were 4‐7% in UC and 10‐15% in CD and were stable over time. Two‐year hospitalisation rates increased in Denmark (UC: 20% to 35%; CD: 27% to 32%) but were stable in Norway and Sweden (fluctuating between 33% and 37% in UC, and 46% and 52% in CD). Two‐year rates of biologic use increased in both UC (7% to 16% in Denmark, 8% to 18% in Norway) and CD (22% to 26% in Denmark; 21% to 35% in Norway). Two‐year rates of immunomodulator use increased in Norway (from 14% to 23% in UC; 37% to 45% in CD) and Sweden (from 41% to 52% in CD), but were stable in Denmark (between 17% and 21% in UC; 39% to 46% in CD). Conclusion Between 2010 and 2017, surgery rates among Scandinavian patients with IBD remained stable, with no clear changes in hospitalisation rates despite the increasing use of immunomodulators and biologics.
