Do nursing-delivered interventions reduce hospital readmission rates in adult patients post CABG surgery?

P
Population
A systematic review of 8 studies evaluating the effectiveness of nursing-delivered interventions on hospital readmission rates among adult patients following coronary artery bypass graft surgery.
I
Intervention
Nursing-delivered interventions aimed at preventing post-CABG readmission, including discharge planning, home visits, telephone follow-up, telehealth, individualized education, and peer advisor support.
C
Comparator
Usual care or standard care (as defined in the included primary studies).
O
Outcome
Hospital readmission rate.hard clinical

Nursing-delivered interventions, particularly those involving advanced practice nurses and continuity of care, can be effective in reducing hospital readmission rates among patients post CABG surgery.

Limitations

  • Constraints on English-language papers
  • Limited number of qualifying studies
  • Differences in the nature of the studies used
