The type of research which was carried out by Nguyen et al. (2021)
is quantitative. The researchers used the retrospective cohort
design based on adult patient data discharged from fifteen
hospitals in Southern California. The study’s research question is;
what are the effects of clinic and telephone follow-ups that had
been carried out fully within seven days on readmission, and do
the effects vary with the age and service line? The sample of the
study consisted of adult patients. The study’s sample size
consisted of 212,513 grown-up patients who had been discharged
from fifteen different hospitals located in Southern California
hospitals (Nguyen et al., 2021). The sample attributes are that it
was the first hospitalization, they were discharged from the
hospital alive, and the patients remained enrolled in the health
plan for a minimum of thirty days after being released by the
hospitals. The participants also had to be discharged from the
hospitals between January 2017 to December 2019. The setting of
the study was in Southern California in the Kaiser Permanente
healthcare facilities. The study found that completing clinic or
telephone follow-up visits within seven days of hospital discharge
reduced hospital readmission rates.
