Abstract

With the increased number of sports injuries over the year, the emergency departments of various countries witnessed enormous challenges related to patient management and duration of stay at the hospital. These concerns drew attention to factors that highly impact the length of stay and observation period in emergency departments. The study's main objective was to evaluate the organizational or institutional factors that control the length of stay (LOS) at physical rehabilitation and surgical centers. The results identified that the factors, i.e., delayed lab reports, bed management, and the treatment or diagnosis approach, determine the patient's observatory time and treatment outcomes. The role of the Clinical Decision Support system (CDSS) was examined to evaluate the differential impact of management measures on inpatient recovery and improved LOS.
