Readmission was defined as a hospital admission related to the disease and/or treatment complications, and was classified as early (< 30 days), late (30 days-1 year), or long-term readmission (> 1 year). We used logistic regression to estimate the adjusted odds ratios (aOR), and 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) to explore the factors associated with early, late and long-term readmissions, adjusting byBMC health services researchFactors associated with readmissions in women participating in screening programs and treated for breast cancer: a retrospective cohort study.PMC6896282PI15/00098RD12/0001/0015PS09/01153PI11/01296PI12/00387RD12/0001/0007RD16/0001/0013Louro JBarata TFerrer JBare MCarmona-Garcia MCDomingo LMiret CCastells XSala MfalseFactors associated with readmissions in women participating in screening programs and treated for breast cancer: a retrospective cohort study.<h4>Background</h4>We aimed to identify the risk factors associated with early, late and long-term readmissions in women diagnosed with breast cancer participating in screening programs.<h4>Methods</h4>We performed a multicenter cohort study of 1055 women aged 50-69 years participating in Spanish screening programs, diagnosed with breast cancer between 2000 and 2009, and followed up to 2014.
