Abstract
Early readmission is the major success indicator of the transition between hospital and home. Patients admitted with heart failure reach a 20% rate. Potentially avoidable readmissions, defined as unpredictable and related to a known condition during index hospitalization, represent the improvement margin. For these latter, implementation of specific interventions can be effective. Complex interventions on transition, including several modalities and seeking to encourage patient autonomy seem more effective than others. We describe two models: a pragmatic one developed in a regional hospital, and a more complex one developed in a university hospital during the LEAR-HF study. In both cases, it is imperative to work on "medical liability": should it extend beyond discharge up to the threshold of the private practice?
