Key Points Question Are patient ambulation profiles predictive of hospital readmission, discharge location, and length of stay? Findings In this prognostic cohort study of 100 adults in a cardiac surgery progressive care unit, patient ambulation profiles were predictive of 30-day readmission (C statistic, 0.925), discharge location (C statistic, 0.930), and length of stay (correlation coefficient, 0.927). Meaning Patient ambulation profiles from a real-time location system enable prediction of clinically relevant outcomes.
