Pancreatectomy is a high outlier with respect to readmission.
The relationship of patient satisfaction measures to readmission deserves further study.
The difficulties that patients experience after discharge can lead to readmission and nonadherence to lifestyle change.
In addition, little is known about factors related to readmission that occur soon after discharge in patients with severe infections.
Median number of days to readmission was 3 [2 5] and not statistically different between groups (Table 3).
Radical cystectomy has one of the highest 30-d hospital readmission rates but circumstances leading to readmission remain poorly understood.
Data on age, diagnosis, treatment, and duration of each hospitalization were compiled and analyzed for their association to CLD and to readmission for CLD and other reasons.
The premature lung itself rather than the presence of CLD, as we would expect, makes ELBW infants more prone to readmission for respiratory illness.
"We do everything in our ability to keep them safe and keep them happy, and a lot of times we'll hold onto that patient for years to come where they're no longer at risk to readmission," Hill said.
Mean time to readmission was 3.5 ± 1.1 days (2, 5).
