Hospital Readmissions for All‐Causes and Fluid Overload in Severely Reduced Kidney Function Not Requiring Dialysis—A Retrospective Cohort Study
Factors related to comorbidity burden (ASCVD, AF, more frequent emergency department visits and higher LACE score) and disease severity (higher serum potassium and need for high-dose intravenous furosemide) can identify individuals at increased risk of readmission. Further research is required to evaluate the impact of modifiable factors (nephrology consult, RAS blocker prescription at discharge and statin prescription at discharge) to reduce fluid overload-related and all-cause readmissions.
