Benjamin S. Brooke, MD, PhD, Randall R. De Martino, MD, MS, Micah Girotti, MD, Justin B. Dimick, MD, MPH, Philip P. Goodney, MD, MS  Journal of Vascular Surgery  Volume 56, Issue 2, Pages (August 2012) DOI: /j.jvs Copyright © 2012 Society for Vascular Surgery Terms and Conditions

2 Fig 1 Conceptual model of a preventable readmission in vascular surgery. There are multiple risk factors and key issues to consider at four separate phases of care for a patient readmitted following a vascular surgery procedure. These represent points where variability in clinical pathways and decision-making may be associated with increased risk for readmission and where future research may be targeted. LOS, Length of hospital stay; PCP, primary care provider; SES, socioeconomic status. Journal of Vascular Surgery  , DOI: ( /j.jvs ) Copyright © 2012 Society for Vascular Surgery Terms and Conditions

3 Fig 2 Categorization and examples of readmission types in vascular surgery. AAA, Abdominal aortic aneurysm; CABG, coronary artery bypass graft surgery; CEA, carotid endarterectomy; MVA, motor vehicle accident; TEVAR, thoracic endovascular aneurysm repair.
