简要总结
The hypothesis of this study that the Point-Of-Care Chemistry Test (POCT) may shorten Emergency Department (ED) length of stay (LOS).
详细描述
ED crowding is one of the most serious problems in ED. POCT has shorter turn-around time compared to centralized laboratory system. If POCT introduce to ED, it may help to shorten LOS of ED patients.
