Differentiating properties of occupancy rate and workload to estimate crowding: A Swedish national cross‐sectional study
Abstract
Emergency department (ED) crowding causes increased patient morbidity and mortality. ED occupancy rate (OR; patients by treatment beds) is a common measure of crowding, but the comparability of ORs between EDs is unknown. The objective of this investigation was to investigate differences in ORs between EDs using staff‐perceived workload as reference.
