Abstract: BACKGROUND Cardiac patients have a high risk of readmission following hospital discharge. The aim of our project was to examine the factors associated with increased readmission rate, with a view to eventually decrease the rate… read more here.

DOI: 10.1097/md.0000000000032953
Abstract: The relationship between the Charlson comorbidity index (CCI) and short-term readmission is as yet unknown. Therefore, we aimed to investigate whether the CCI was independently related to short-term readmission in patients with heart failure (HF)… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/acps.13523
Abstract: Delirium is an acute and fluctuating change in attention and cognition that increases the risk of functional decline, institutionalisation and death in hospitalised patients. After delirium, patients have a significantly higher risk of readmission to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/liv.14054
Abstract: The burden of cirrhosis on the healthcare system is substantial and growing. Our objectives were to estimate the readmission rates and hospitalization costs as well as to identify risk factors for 90‐day readmission in patients… read more here.

DOI: 10.1136/openhrt-2018-000865
Abstract: Objective Mountain districts normally have tougher geographic conditions than plain districts, which might worsen heart failure (HF) conditions in patients. Also, those places frequently are associated with social problems of ageing, underpopulation and fewer medical… read more here.

DOI: 10.1155/2022/4143173
Abstract: The high incidence of readmission for patients with reduced ejection fraction heart failure (HFrEF) can seriously affect the prognosis. In this study, we aimed to build a simple predictive model to predict the risk of… read more here.
