Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study evaluates the association between risk levels (i.e.; low, moderate and high) of Emergency Room Tool (ER2) and length of stay in older Emergency Room Tool (ER) users admitted to the medical or surgery wards of the Jewish General Hospital.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The Emergency Room Tool (ER2) assessment can be used by Emergency Department nurses taking care of older Emergency Department (ED) users on stretcher, and that ER2 moderate and high risk levels is associated with long length of stay in Emergency Department and hospital as well as hospital admissions.
