Hospital Discharge Planning—An Investigation of Outcomes and Interventions
This umbrella review synthesizes evidence on associations between hospital DP and various outcomes. The findings support the development of tailored DP strategies and point to research gaps. Future studies should prioritize standardizing intervention definitions, outcome measures, and subgroup classifications, and investigate unexamined causal mechanisms.
