Objective
To examine the association between the number of physical and occupational therapist visits received in the acute care hospital and the risk of hospital readmission or death. Design Retrospective cohort study of electronic health records and administrative claims data collected for 2.25 years (January 1, 2016-March 30, 2018). Setting Twelve acute care hospitals in a large health care system in western Pennsylvania. Participants Adults (N=8279) discharged with a primary stroke diagnosis. Interventions The exposure was number of physical and occupational therapist visits during the acute care stay. Main Outcome Measures Generalized linear mixed models were estimated to examine the relationship between therapy use and 30- and 7-day hospital readmission or death (outcome), controlling for patient demographic and clinical characteristics. Results The 30- and 7-day readmission or death rates were 16.0% and 5.7%, respectively. The number of therapist visits was inversely related to the risk of 30-day readmission or death. Relative to no therapist visits, the odds of readmission or death were 0.70 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.54-0.90) for individuals who received 1-2 visits, 0.59 (95% CI, 0.43-0.81) for 3-5 visits, and 0.57 (95% CI, 0.39-0.81) for >5 visits. A similar pattern was seen for the 7-day outcome, with slightly larger effect sizes. Effects were also greater in individuals with more mobility limitations on admission and for those discharged to a postacute care facility vs home. Conclusions There was an inverse relationship between the number of therapist visits and risk for readmission or death for patients with stroke discharged from an acute care hospital. Effects differed by time to the event (30d vs 7d), discharge location, and mobility limitations on admission. |
