Nationwide study of six-month readmissions in critical limb ischemia: Predictors and impact of revascularization strategies

CONCLUSION: The risk of critical limb ischemia and non-critical limb ischemia-related readmission differ according to the management strategy. Significant differences in discharge disposition exist depending on revascularization strategy. Study findings identify opportunities for reducing readmissions by focusing on nonprocedural aspects like wound-care, discharge planning and placement.PMID:33906558 | DOI:10.1177/17085381211011357
