Description and validation of the Postoperative Discharge Recovery State outcome: a patient-partnered population-based cohort study
The Postoperative Discharge Recovery State is a 5-level ordinal outcome that can be applied at key time points after surgery to quantify the proportion of patients in patient-prioritised discharge locations. Validity and reliability support utility, but further development will be required to maximise information gain relative to binary outcomes.
