We aimed to investigate the impact of post-discharge scheduled hospital visits on readmission due to heart failure (HF). In this retrospective study, a total of 245 patients (N = 101 in the scheduled hospital visit group, N = 144 in the non-scheduled hospital visit group) who were alive with free from readmission due to HF for 90 days after discharge were enrolled. The patients had been hospitalized with acute decompensated HF between August 2018 and July 2019. Scheduled hospital visits were recommended 90 days after the patients had been discharged. After checking their self-care adherence, nurse-led self-care maintenance and monitoring were provided. To determine the effectiveness of the scheduled hospital visits, we conducted landmark analyses divided into two periods: Scheduled visits within 180 days, and after 180 days. The readmission rate due to HF within 180 days was lower in the scheduled visit group. In the landmark analysis, the 1-year incidence rate of readmission was significantly lower in patients with a scheduled hospital visit than in those without, in the period within 180 days (2.0% vs 9.0% |
