The critical care resuscitation unit (CCRU) facilitates interhospital transfer (IHT) of critically ill patients for immediate interventions. Due to these patients\u2019 acuity, it is uncommon for patients to be directly discharged home from this unit, but it does happen on occasion. Since there is no literature regarding outcomes of patients being discharged from a resuscitation unit, our study investigated these patients\u2019 outcome at greater than 12\u2009months after being discharged directly from the CCRU. <jats:italic>Methods<\/jats:italic>. We performed a retrospective cohort study of all adult patients directly discharged from the CCRU between January 01, 2017, and December 31, 2020. The primary outcome was number of ED visits or hospitalizations within 6\u2009months. Secondary outcomes were number of ED visits or hospitalizations within 6, 12, and &gt;12\u2009months from CCRU discharge. <jats:italic>Results<\/jats:italic>. We analyzed 145 patients\u2019 records. Mean age was 56 (standard deviation [SD]\u2009\u00b1\u200919), with a majority being male (72%) and Caucasian (58%). The most common discharge destination was home (139 patients, 96% of total subjects) versus hospice (2%) or nursing facilities (2%). Most patients (55%) did not have any hospital revisits within the first 6\u2009months of discharge, while 31% had 1\u20102 revisits, and 14% had \u22653 revisits. The most common discharge diagnoses were soft tissue infection (16.5%), aortic dissection (14%), and stroke (11%). Factors which were associated with a greater likelihood of any return hospital visit within 6\u2009months receiving mechanical ventilation during CCRU stay (coefficient \u22122.23, 95% CI 0.01\u20130.87, <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> = 0.036), while high hemoglobin on CCRU discharge was associated with no ED revisit (coeff. 0.42, 95% CI 1.15\u20132.06, <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> = 0.004). <jats:italic>Conclusions<\/jats:italic>. Most patients who were discharged from the CCRU did not require any hospital revisits in the first 6\u2009months. Requiring mechanical ventilation and having soft tissue infection were associated with high unplanned hospital revisits following discharge. Further research is needed to validate these findings.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1155\/2023\/2213185","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,10,30]],"date-time":"2023-10-30T20:20:26Z","timestamp":1698697226000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Direct
