Abstract:
Unplanned readmission to intensive care unit (ICU) is one of the indicators to evaluate the quality of medical care in ICU. Patients who were readmitted to ICU usually show worse outcomes, longer length of stays, increased mortality, and more consumption of medical resources. This article reviews the definition, incidence, risk factors, risk prediction models and measures to reduce the incidence of unplanned readmission to ICU in critically ill patients, providing a reference for ICU medical and nursing staff, as well as scholars in China to carry out relevant clinical practice and research.
