The MacNew Questionnaire Is a Helpful Tool for Predicting Unplanned Hospital Readmissions After Coronary Revascularization
Figure
Tables
The analysis denotes that as the MacNew global score becomes higher, the risk of hospitalizations significantly decreases. So, a relatively high MacNew global score is associated with a reduced risk of re-hospitalizations (protective association). Exp(b): hazard ratio; CI: confidence interval. | ||||||
