Abstract

The Emergency Department (ED) is one of the main points of hospital access. Within the ED, where it is not possible to predict accurately the demand, the timeliness and appropriateness of the response are fundamental elements. The clinicians who work within the ED have seen to complicate the already difficult work activity by particular conditions such as overcrowding. This phenomenon, which characterizes ED in almost all developing countries, can cause patient abandonment, delays and dissatisfaction. To be able to study it and seek improvement solutions, one way is to investigate the length of stay (LOS). In this study, a maximum stay threshold will be identified and the ED-LOS of patients who arrived at ED of A.O.R.N. “Antonio Cardarelli” of Naples (Italy) in the last quarter of 2019 will be studied with statistical analysis first and logistic regression then. Age, triage code, time and mode of arrival proved to be the main risk factors for prolonged ED-LOS.

研究在那不勒斯的安东尼奥·卡达雷利急诊室的住院时间

急诊科(ED)是医院的主要通道之一。在不可能准确预测需求的情况下，回应的及时性和适当性是基本要素。在急诊科工作的临床医生发现，由于人满为患等特殊情况，本已困难的工作活动变得更加复杂。这种现象几乎在所有发展中国家都是ED的特征，可能导致患者放弃、延误和不满。为了能够研究它并寻求改进的解决方案，一种方法是调查停留时间(LOS)。本研究将确定最大住院阈值，并对2019年第四季度到达那不勒斯(意大利)A.O.R.N.“Antonio Cardarelli”急诊室的患者ED- los进行统计分析，然后进行logistic回归。年龄、分诊编码、到达时间和到达方式是延长ED-LOS的主要危险因素。
