The purpose of this study was to analyze causes of early readmission to the surgical intensive care unit (SICU), to determine whether readmission can be predicted or prevented, and to compare outcomes of patients readmitted to the SICU with patients not requiring readmission. All patients admitted to the Cedars-Sinai SICU from January 1, 1996, to December 31, 2001, were included. Clinical data was prospectively collected in an on-line computer system.
