Differences Between Early and Late Readmissions Among Patients: A Cohort Study

Resource Type: Research Papers
0 Comments

This was a retrospective cohort study of 8,078 COPD patients to examine differences in predictors of early hospital readmissions at two stages (0-7 days post-discharge versus 8-30 days). Results suggest these predictors -- and the degree to which they are related to outcomes -- are different between stages.
