- Abstract
Introduction: Despite that hospital readmission after CABG surgery became an international concern, few studies have focused on nurse's role in the reduction of the readmission rate. The purpose: This review aims to assess the effectiveness of nursing interventions that are reported to reduce patient's readmission post CABG surgery. Methods: a systematic review following the PRISM A protocol was operated. Relevant studies were retrieved from two main electronic databases. Results: Eight studies met the inclusion criteria. The retrieved studies were conducted to identify the effectiveness of nursing interventions on readmission rate among patients post CABG surgery. Different types of nursing interventions were identified and generally, it decreased the readmission rate among patients in most of the studies. Conclusion: Different nursing interventions have been reported to reduce readmission rate after coronary artery bypass graft surgery. However, a better reporting of these nursing interventions and linking it with nursing staff training and qualification is recommended.
