Examination of independent predictors of discharge disposition in acute phase hospitalized heart failure patients undergoing phase I cardiac rehabilitation.

CONCLUSIONS: The present study suggested that KES and SPPB on hospital admission may contributed to early detection of the patients who are difficult to return home. Additionally, there is a possibility that CR goal setting of BI ≥80 points is effective to home discharge in acute phase hospitalized HF patients. CLINICAL REHABILITATION IMPACT: This study may contribute to early detection of the patients who are predicted to be difficult to return home and to appropriate rehabilitation goals setting.
