Association of obstructive sleep apnea with all-cause readmissions after hospitalization for asthma exacerbation in adults aged 18-54 years: a population-based study, 2010-2013.
The authors sought to investigate associations between obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and readmission risk after hospitalization for asthma exacerbation using data from State Inpatient Databases from seven U.S. states. They found that, overall, OSA was associated with a significantly higher incident rate of all-cause readmission. Additionally, OSA was associated with higher incident rates of readmissions for five major diseases: asthma, COPD, respiratory failure, pneumonia, and congestive heart failure, compared to non-OSA.

Association of acute kidney injury with readmissions after hospitalization for acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: a population-based study.
This study examined the association between acute kidney injury (AKI) and readmission with hospitalization for acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD). Retrospective, population-based cohort data was used from the HCUP State Inpatient Databases from seven states (Arkansas, California, Florida, Iowa, Nebraska, New York, and Utah) from 2010 through 2013. A total of 356,990 patients were identified as hospitalized for AECOPD. Median age was 71 years and 41.9% were male. Of those 7% had a concurrent diagnosis of AKI. Patients with AKI were found to have a significantly higher risk of 30-day all-cause readmission compared to those without AKI as well as a significantly higher risk of 90-day all-cause readmission, particularly for non-respiratory reasons. These reasons included sepsis, acute renal failure, and congestive heart failure.

Sex and racial/ethnic differences in the reason for 30-day readmission after COPD hospitalization.
This retrospective cohort study used 2006-2012 data from the State Inpatient Database of eight geographically-diverse US states (Arkansas, California, Florida, Iowa, Nebraska, New York, Utah, and Washington) to examine 30-day readmissions in patients hospitalized for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). In their analysis of all-payer population-based data, the authors found sex and racial/ethnic differences in the reason for 30-day readmission in patients hospitalized for COPD.

Trends in 30-day readmission rates after COPD hospitalization, 2006-2012.
This study investigated trends in 30-day readmission rates after chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)-related hospitalization. Overall, the 30-day readmission rate for COPD-related hospitalization decreased modestly from 20.0 percent in 2006 to 19.2 percent in 2012. Similar to the overall population, the readmission rate over the 7-year period remained persistently high in most of AHRQ-defined priority populations.
