Emergency department crowding increases 10-day mortality for non-critical patients: a retrospective observational study.

After splitting the data in two to study the admitted and discharged patients separately, the results did not reach statistical significance (Q4 OR 1.23, p = 0.064 and 1.79, p = 0.084, respectively), even though the odds ratio for 10-day mortality among discharged patients increased linearly in each EDOR quartile.

Although there was an increasing trend in mortality among the discharged patients in each EDOR (at arrival) quartile (Q2 1.36, Q3 1.56 and Q4 1.79), these findings were not statistically significant (Table 3 ).
