We sought to determine predictors of 30-day readmission following pancreatic resections in a large healthcare system.Methods： We retrospectively collected information from the records of 383 patients who underwent pancreaticresections from 2004–2013. To find the predictors of readmission in the 30 days after discharge,we performed a univariate screen of possible variables using the Fisher’s exact test for categorical variables and the Mann–Whitney U test for continuous variables.
