- Other: Hospital stay
- Registration Number
- NCT03107364
- Lead Sponsor
- Hospices Civils de Lyon
- Brief Summary
Medical and surgical innovations have allowed to shorter length of hospital stay (LOS). We assume that hospitals with uncontrolled reduction in LOS may expose patients to unsafe care. At the institutional level, a dynamic analysis of LOS evolution over time could clarify the existence of a link with the risk of readmission.
