“…As secondary analyses, we estimated adjusted HRs for each dimension, taking population and hospital size into account. Controlling for population size is important in our context because emergency department capacity constraints have been associated with poorer quality of care and outcomes for stroke, and other time-sensitive conditions, such as acute myocardial infarction, sepsis, and trauma . For example, the same-sized hospital covering 1000 vs 1 million residents means fewer residents have to compete for access.…”

“…ex., thrombolyse pour un infarctus du myocarde) 25 ou à administrer des antibiotiques pour la pneumonie 26,27 . On a également établi un lien entre l'engorgement et un pronostic plus sombre, par exemple une augmentation des complications cardiovasculaires 28,29 , un risque élevé de pneumonie et un séjour prolongé 31,32 . D'autres études ont donné à penser que l'engorgement des services d'urgence peut accroître le risque de mortalité [33][34][35] .…”

“…Delayed transfer of critically ill patients from the emergency department (ED) to the medical intensive care unit (MICU) may be associated with longer hospital length of stay (LOS) and increased mortality (1)(2)(3)(4)(5). Major factors leading to prolonged ED to MICU transfers are lack of available beds in the ICU and a shortage of ward beds for stable ICU patients (3).…”
