The proportion of patients with \u22651 30-day readmission were presented over time and Cochran-Armitage Trend Testing indicated a statistically significant decreasing trend in the 30-day readmission incidence from 2016-2021 (\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                      &lt; 0.0001). The mean absolute change in incidence from year-to-year was \u22120.24% (mean relative change, 0.97) and the total absolute difference in incidence from 2016 to 2021 was \u22121.20% (relative difference, 0.85).
