There is limited data on patient preference for same-day discharge . We contacted 953 patients who had same-day discharge radial between 1998 and 2001 and checked whether they were satisfied with same-day discharge and whether they had any complications within 30 days post-(vascular, repeat angio...
One patient was readmitted the next day requiring stenting of the previously treated lesion. Our 30‐day mortality was zero. Some 97 hospital bed days were saved with 100 patients treated. Conclusion Elective day‐case DCB‐only angioplasty according to our local protocol is safe and cost‐...
Unadjusted patient outcomes were significantly better among patients discharged to home health care: 15.8% were readmitted to the hospital within 30 days, vs 17.8% of those discharged to an SNF; 2.3% died within 30 days, compared with 6.9% of those discharged to an SNF; and 80.2% had an ...
We collected the baseline data using questionnaires within three days before hospital discharge. The data related to delirium during admission, length of stay, polypharmacy, serum sodium and haemoglobin level were collected from medical records. Readmission in this study was defined as admission to an...
However, COVID-19 survivors had higher rates of readmission or death within the first 10 days after discharge than matched survivors of pneumonia (13.4% vs 9.7%; P = .01) and heart failure (13.9% vs 8.8%; P < .001) (Figure). Discussion In this national cohort of VA ...
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is used for critically ill patients when conventional treatments for cardiac or respiratory failure are unsuccessful.To describe patient and treatment characteristics and discharge outcome for ECMO patients, determine which characteristics are associated with good (surv...
she can remain at the place she has called home for the past 4 years. If it wasn’t for them, her time at The assisted living facility would have been limited. Both mom and I can sleep better these days and I feel like a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders. Thanks again...
The objectives of this study were: (1) to determine whether the above-listed factors predict LOS after THA or TKA, (2) to identify predictors of discharge to a rehabilitation unit and of readmission within 30 days after surgery. Hypothesis Both patient-related factors unamenable to modification...
Fewer intervention group patients had multiple readmissions (6.2% vs 14.5%;P = .01) and the intervention group had fewer hospital days per patient (1.53 vs 4.09 days; P<.001). Time to first readmission was increased in the intervention group (P<.001). At 24 weeks after discharge, total...
