Depression is associated with readmission for acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
The authors characterized the associations between depression and anxiety and COPD readmission risk. They found that depression is an independent risk factor for both short- and long-term readmissions for acute exacerbation of COPD and may represent a modifiable risk factor. They also found that in-hospital tobacco cessation counseling was associated with reduced 1-year readmission.

Design and rationale for a randomized controlled trial to reduce readmissions among patients with depressive symptoms.
This study aims to examine the effectiveness of RED-D, a modified brief Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) protocol delivered as a post-discharge extension of the Re-Engineered Discharge (RED), in reducing 30-day readmissions rates and emergency department use as well as depressive symptoms for medical patients with comorbid depressive symptoms.
