Key result
Integrated care for patients with respiratory disease promotes greater continuity of care and can improve patient outcomes at hospital discharge compared to traditional acute care models.
Why the study?
Continuity of care is threatened during transition at hospital discharge under traditional acute care models, which are suboptimal for patients admitted with acute-on-chronic respiratory disease.
Population
Patients admitted to hospital with acute-on-chronic respiratory disease

Supports integrated care transitions in respiratory disease; leaves open randomized confirmation before practice change.
Transitioning from a traditional acute care model to an integrated chronic care model can improve continuity of care and outcomes for patients with respiratory disease at hospital discharge.
Dummer et al. (2020) conducted a review in Respiratory disease. Integrated care vs. Traditional acute care model was evaluated. Integrated care for patients with respiratory disease promotes greater continuity of care and can improve patient outcomes at hospital discharge compared to traditional acute care models.
