Predictors and reasons for unplanned early rehospitalization in lung transplant recipients: a retrospective cohort study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Unplanned early rehospitalization (UER) is common among lung transplant recipients, but its incidence varies among lung transplant centers. This study aimed to analyze the incidence, causes and predictors of UER in a lung transplant center in China and to explore the impact of preoperative nutritional risk status, postoperative duration of mechanical ventilation (MV) and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation support in the intensive care unit on unplanned readmission in lung transplant patients.
