Key result
Readmission to the ICU was not an independent risk factor for hospital mortality (HR for first readmission 0.88; p > 0.05).
Observational (n=10,210)
Yes
Effect estimate: HR 0.88
p-value: p=>0.05
Readmission to the ICU is not an independent risk factor for hospital mortality when accounting for patient frailty and other clinical factors.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
Readmission not independently tied to mortality after frailty adjustment; leaves open whether prevention strategies affect survival.
Santamaria et al. (2016) conducted an observational in ICU readmission (n=10,210). Readmission to ICU was evaluated on Hospital survival (HR 0.88, p=>0.05). Readmission to the ICU was not an independent risk factor for hospital mortality (HR for first readmission 0.88; p > 0.05).
