Abstract

This poster aims to estimate the relationship between comorbid serious mental illness (SMI) diagnosis and 30-day medical-surgical readmissions. The search yielded 424 articles, with fourteen meeting inclusion criteria. Meta-analysis showed that patients with SMI have greater odds of readmission than those without, displaying the meaningful relationship between SMI and readmission.
