Abstract

A retrospective audit of the charts of 62 Medicare patients with diagnoses of congestive heart failure (CHF) and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) was conducted. Data that described marital status, number of visits made, number of hospital readmissions, and types of nursing interventions were collected. A significant relationship was found between certain nursing interventions and hospital readmissions.
