The primary aim of our study was to analyze the independent factors affecting handover duration in Emergency Department. The secondary aim was to identify the factors affecting Emergency Department handover rates.
The primary aim in this study was to analyze the independent factors affecting handover duration in Emergency Department. Our secondary aim was to identify the factors affecting the Emergency Department handover rates. To better analyze independent variables, we dichotomized the data. First, we dichotomized handover duration into two groups according to the median handoff time of 20 minutes. Second, we divided handover rates into two groups using the median rate of handovers per shift, which was 3.87%.
