Effect of oral contrast for abdominal computed tomography on emergency department length of stay
Emergency Radiology, 10/23/09
Schuur JD et al. – There was no change in LOS among all ED visits. Among ED visits where a CTAP was performed, median time to CTAP decreased by 27 min and median LOS decreased by 30 min. Adjusted LOS decreased from 324 min to 297 min. Not routinely requiring oral contrast for CTAP in the ED is associated with a half–hour reduction in LOS among all patients undergoing CTAP.
