Implication

RHD MIS supports post-MI discharge readiness assessment; leaves open impact on readmissions or outcomes in prospective use.

Structured PICO

P
Population
201 patients (57 females [29%], 144 males [71%], mean age 63.3 ± 11.3 years) with coronary artery disease treated with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) hospitalized due to myocardial infarction.
I
Intervention
Readiness for Hospital Discharge after Myocardial Infarction Scale (RHD MIS) questionnaire
O
Outcome
Questionnaire reliability and homogeneity (Cronbach's alpha) and factor analysispatient reported

The RHD MIS is a reliable and homogeneous tool for measuring the readiness of patients for hospital discharge after myocardial infarction.

Limitations

  • Single university hospital
  • Sample characteristics may not reflect types of patients assigned to other cardiology departments
