Length of stayHospitalsMethodsAccurate calculation of hospital length of stay (LOS) from the English Hospital Episode Statistics (HES) is important for a wide range of audit and research purposes. The two methodologies which are commonly used to achieve this differ in their accuracy and complexity....

We are applying it to the outcome hospital length of stay for patients hospitalized due to COVID-19 across the OHDSI network. Background Due to the novelty of COVID-19 many data sets only contain small quantities of COVID-19 specific data. The OHDSI network contains a large number of ...

In ICU-patients the average length of stay was 4.5 ± 8.9 days and the average workload 114 ± 218 mTISS-points. The workload was not significantly related to age or type of admission (scheduled vs unscheduled). Hospital non-survivors (13.6%) showed a significantly increased mean total mTI...
The most important aspects for the patients were the qualification of staff and the time physicians and nurses would devote to the patient, and the medical and technical equipment of the hospital. Beds per room, food, length and costs of the stay were less important in patients' expectations....
This system, therefore, indicates the work load of intensive care and may be used for calculating costs in the ICU. In the present study, TISS scoring was prospectively performed daily on 653 patients in a 14-bed multidisciplinary ICU of a 1400-bed university hospital. In addition, we scored...
