Urological and nursing-related predictors of unplanned hospital readmission after percutaneous nephrolithotomy: A prospective cohort study
The rate of unplanned HR after PNL was relatively high (22.4%). The presence of pus cells in the preoperative urine analysis, intraoperative injury, and receiving inadequate instructions on urethral catheter care were independent predictors of HR after PNL. Combined studying of the urological and nursing-related predictors may promote the implementation of enhanced recovery protocols after PNL.
