Predictors and Outcome of ICU Readmission after Cardiac Surgery

Abstract: Patients after valve/combined surgery are more likely to require readmission to the ICU. Respiratory complications were the most common reasons for readmission. To reduce the readmission rate, it is necessary to treat cardio-respiratory problems early, particularly in patients showing predictive risk factors.

“…In a retrospective review of 3.523 patients undergoing CABG and/or valve surgery, multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that LCOS was an independent predictor of longer hospital stay and readmission to the ICU and a longer hospital stay [23]. We also observed that patients who developed LCOS in the postoperative period have average length of stay in ICU and hospital stay longer than patients without this complication.…”

“…view of 3523 patients undergoing CABG and/or valve surgery, multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that LCOS was an independent predictor of longer hospital stay and readmission to the ICU. 14) Higher morbidity and mortality coincided with longer ICU stay and postoperative hospital stay, which might contribute to an increase of the economic impact of this entity. Obviously, it became crucial for clinicians to identify the predictors of LCOS following CABG surgery, in order to optimize pre-and intraoperative risk factors involved in strategies to reduce the incidence of LCOS following CABG.…”

“…In another study, it was demonstrated that one of the main independent risk factors for ICU readmission in fast track CABG, is a patient's age of more than 65 years (11)(12)(13). All of the above findings should be tempered with the fact that the more age increases above 65 years, there is an increased risk for postoperative complications (36)(37)(38)(39)(40).…”
