Aim: This study aimed to determine the effect of transitional care program on the readmission rate of patients after CABG (Coronary Artery Bypass Graft). Design: A randomized clinical trial. Methods: 80 patients undergoing CABG surgery were recruited by convenience sampling and randomly assigned into two groups using block randomization. The intervention group received transitional care plan, while the control group received only the routine hospital discharge care. Thirty days after discharge readmission rate, unplanned re-visit and type of postoperative complications were compared between groups. Results: The transitional care program reduced the readmission rate and unplanned re-visit in the intervention group by 5% compared to the control group, although not statistically significant (P= 0.576 and P = 0.633 respectively). There was a significant difference between two groups in terms of the type of complications (P = 0.016). To realize the ideal goals of transitional care, a multidisciplinary nurse-lead team must provide transitional care.
