Patient Ambulations Predict Hospital Readmission
2021 43rd Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine & Biology Society (EMBC), 2021Improved functional ability and physical activity are strongly associated with a broad range of positive health outcomes including reduced risk of hospital readmission. This study presents an algorithm for detecting ambulations from time-resolved step counts gathered from remote monitoring of patients receiving hospital care in their homes. It examines

Nonelective readmissions of medical patients
Journal of Chronic Diseases, 1985Because it is difficult to predict the course of patients discharged from the hospital, we studied 1646 consecutive patients discharged from the medicine service to the care of the hospital's medical staff. Conditions serious enough to warrant urgent or emergent (nonelective) readmissions developed in 278 (16.9%) within 90 days.

Hospital Readmissions from Patients’ Perspectives
Southern Medical Journal, 2017Healthcare expenditures in the United States have increased exponentially and hospital care accounts for one-third of these costs. Approximately 18% of hospitalized Medicare beneficiaries are being readmitted to the hospital within 30 days. Engaging patients in the discharge process can help better identify patients' postdischarge needs and implement ...

Cerebral cavernous malformations (CCMs) are microvascular CNS lesions prone to hemorrhage leading to neurological sequela such as stroke and seizure. A subset of CCM patients have aggressive disease leading to multiple bleeding events, likely resulting multiple hospitalizations. Hospital admission rates are an important metric that has direct financial

Hospital Readmissions in Hospice Patients: Evaluation of Medication-Related Causes for Readmission
American Journal of Hospice and Palliative Medicine®, 2020Context: Hospital readmissions, frequent medication changes, and polypharmacy are common issues for hospice patients. It is important to consider if close monitoring of medications by pharmacists could help these patients avoid hospital readmissions. Objective: The objectives of this study were to determine the incidence and types of medication-related

Hospital readmission among elderly patients
The European Journal of Health Economics, 2012This study investigates the incidence and determinants of hospital readmissions among elderly patients in Norway. The analyses are based on registered data on inpatient admissions to public hospitals from 1999 to 2006. During this period, mean length of stay in hospital decreased, while readmission rates increased.

Hospital readmissions are a frequent challenge. Speculation exists that rates of readmission following traumatic injury will be publicly disclosed. The primary aim of this study was to characterize and model 1-year readmission patterns to multiple institutions among patients originally admitted to a single, urban Level I trauma center.

Patient-reported oncology readmission factors.
Journal of Clinical Oncology, 201248 Background: Reducing the risk of readmissions is an important quality goal for hospitals. Little is known of the perspectives of patients on underlying challenges that may lead to readmission. The objective of this study was to elicit perspectives of readmitted oncology patients on barriers to a successful transition from hospital to home. Methods:
