Unplanned hospital readmissions after surgical operations are considered a marker for suboptimal care during index hospitalizations and are associated with poor patient outcomes and increased healthcare resource utilization. Patients undergoing lower extremity bypass (LEB) operations for severe peripheral arterial disease (PAD) have one of the highest readmission rates, among all the vascular and non-vascular surgical operations. This review is meant to evaluate the impact of pre-existing comorbidities (diabetes mellitus (DM), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), congestive heart failure (CHF), hypertension (HTN), and coronary artery disease (CAD))—on the 30-day readmission rates among patients who underwent LEB for severe PAD. |
