Overall characteristics for study period of 200 days.
| ED census (mean ± SD) | 124 ± 16 | Left-without-being-seen % (median, IQR) | 0.9 (0 to 1.8) | Length of stay (LOS) minutes (median, interquartile range) | 339 (236 to 594) | % higher acuity triage (class 1, 2, or 3) | 64 ± 5 | % Inpatient occupancy (median, interquartile range) | 90 (85 to 95) |
