Wang L, et al. - Researchers performed a retrospective observational study of patients < 14 years of age who were discharged with a diagnosis of Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia (MPP) in order to assess the risk factors for 90-day readmission after discharge among these cases. They analyzed 424 MPP hospitalizations; among these, 48 (11.3%) were readmitted within 90 days and were mainly diagnosed with pneumonia. This indicates common occurrence of readmission after MPP. Readmission is noted to be correlated to patients’ age, body temperature, and influenza A coinfection during the initial hospital stay. More frequent readmission was observed for patients with younger age or coinfection with influenza A.
