Factors influencing unplanned readmission within 30 days in patients with heart failure and their predictive value: a prospective study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Heart failure imposes a significant healthcare burden, with early unplanned readmissions post-discharge linked to poor outcomes. Identifying risk factors and their predictive value is crucial for targeted interventions.

Objective

To investigate gender differences in cumulative hazard function and the factors influencing 30-day unplanned readmissions in heart failure patients, and to compare their predictive value.

Methods

A prospective study of heart failure patients hospitalized in Beijing Hospital from October 2023 to March 2024. Patients' nutritional status was assessed using the Mini-Nutritional Assessment Scale Short Version (MNA-SF), frailty was evaluated using the Groningen Frailty Index (GFI), and the Appendicular Skeletal Muscle Mass Index (ASMI) w
