Contributions of planned readmissions and patient comorbidities to high readmission rates in vascular surgery patients [PDF]
Administrative data show that among surgical patients, readmission rates are highest in vascular surgery. Herein we analyze the contribution of planned readmissions and patient comorbidities to high readmission rates in vascular surgery.The 2012 to 2014 American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (ACS NSQIP) data set was ...

A method for determining an emergency readmission time window for better patient management [PDF]
This paper introduces an modelling approach to determining the appropriate width of a time window within which an admission is classified as a readmission. The approach is based on an intuitive idea that patients, who are discharged from hospital, can be

Drivers of readmissions in vascular surgery patients [PDF]
Postoperative readmissions are frequent in vascular surgery patients, but it is not clear which factors are the main drivers of readmissions. Specifically, the relative contributions of patient comorbidities vs those of operative factors and postoperative complications are unknown. We sought to study the multiple potential drivers of readmission and to
