DOI: 10.1007/s00431-021-03929-z
Abstract: The LACE index scoring tool has been designed to predict hospital readmissions in adults. We aimed to evaluate the ability of the LACE index to identify children at risk of frequent readmissions. We analysed data… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s11136-021-02835-z
Abstract: To examine whether the EQ-5D-3L at the time of discharge from hospital provides additional prognostic information above the LACE index for 30-day post-discharge hospital readmission and to explore the association of EQ-5D-3L with readmissions, emergency… read more here.

DOI: 10.1186/s12913-018-2833-3
Abstract: BackgroundSignificant effort has been directed at developing prediction tools to identify patients at high risk of unplanned hospital readmission, but it is unclear what these tools add to clinicians’ judgment. In our study, we assess… read more here.

DOI: 10.12688/f1000research.11315.1
Abstract: Background: Unplanned readmissions are frequent, associated with high costs and potentially preventable. Pre-discharge risk screening is a crucial step to prevent hospital readmissions. This study evaluates the LACE index as a tool capable of identifying… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/ijerph20010348
Abstract: (1) Background: Elders have higher rates of rehospitalization, especially those with functional decline. We aimed to investigate potential predictors of 30-day readmission risk by comprehensive geriatric assessment (CGA) in hospitalized patients aged 65 years or… read more here.
