Assessing Discharge Readiness and Influencing Factors Among Patients with Aortic Dissection: A Cross-Sectional Study
This study revealed that patients with aortic dissection generally had discharge readiness scores at the lower end of the moderate range, indicating the need for improvement. It's imperative that health care providers emphasize patient education prior to discharge and develop and implement personalized discharge plans for these patients in order to improve not only their discharge readiness but also their postdischarge quality of life and long-term prognoses.
