Kappy B, Berkowitz D, Isbey S, et al. Am J Emerg Med. 2023;77:139-146. Patient boarding (i.e., time from admission order to transfer to inpatient unit) in adult emergency departments (ED) has been associated with poorer patient outcomes. This study assessed the impact of boarding times in one pediatric emergency department (PED) from 2018 to 2022. Increased boarding time was associated with increased length of overall hospital stay for patients admitted to hospital wards, but not for patients admitted to the intensive care unit.
