Abstract
A comprehensive care plan for patients hospitalized for AECOPD reduced the odds of all-cause readmission, mortality, and AECOPD specific readmission risk. This exploratory study reinforces the use of the AECOPD Care Plan at WFBMC. Future research should focus on a randomized, pragmatic clinical trial to further evaluate the impact of this plan on clinical outcomes.
