Agreement and comparative accuracy of instability criteria at discharge for predicting adverse events in patients with community-acquired pneumonia
Clinical instability was associated with higher odds of 30-day postdischarge adverse events according to all but one of the published definitions. This study supports the validity of definitions that combine vital signs, mental status and the ability to maintain oral intake within 24 hours prior to discharge to identify patients at a higher risk of postdischarge adverse events.
