Schwam ZG, et al. - This retrospective cohort study was conducted by researchers to identify the risk factors for unanticipated readmission, prolonged index admission, and discharge to a facility after vestibular schwannoma operation. The study sample consisted of those undergoing surgery for vestibular schwannoma in the Nationwide Readmissions Database (2013–2014). Four thousand five hundred eighty-five cases have been identified. Data reported that the overall unanticipated readmission rate was 8.1%, and 9.1% had a prolonged length of stay of ≥ 7 days. The most prevalent diagnoses of readmission involved “other nervous system complications,” cerebrospinal fluid leak, “other postoperative infection,” and meningitis. Investigators found that unanticipated readmission and prolonged length of stay following vestibular schwannoma surgery are common, with a varied sociodemographic, hospital, and patient factors associated with each individual.
