Betihavas et al developed a model and nomogram for predicting unplanned readmission for a patient with congestive heart failure. This can help to identify a patient who may benefit from more aggressive management. The authors are from the University of Sydney, University of Western Sydney, University of New South Wales, University of Technology, Baker IDI Heart and Diabetes Institute and Johns Hopkins University.
Patient selection: congestive heart failure from 25 to 95 years of age
