Discharge Criteria Overview:
An important question facing hospitals across the US is determining when it is safe to discharge patients; unlike other infectious conditions, COVID-19 often gets worse in the second week of illness after a period of initial stability. Discharging patients too soon can increase the risk that patients will get sicker after leaving the hospital, potentially leading to delays in care and worse outcomes. But keeping patients in the hospital until they have fully recovered would overwhelming our health care system. It is thus critical to understand who can be discharged safely, minimizing length of stay and bed occupancy while also minimizing post-discharge adverse outcomes such as readmission. In the absence of evidence of help guide these decisions, HOMERuN has conducted a rapid review of discharge criteria at member hospitals by comparing and contrasting discharge practices at 22 academic medical centers.
