In response to the current crisis in emergency care in Canada, CADTH is working on a series of reports to help identify factors contributing to emergency department (ED) overcrowding, identify and describe interventions that can effectively alleviate ED overcrowding, understand the impact of ED overcrowding on quality of care, patient safety, staff and health professional learners’ well-being, and assess how ED overcrowding has changed over the years.
To help inform these evidence reviews, CADTH will be conducting an analysis of real-world data on the demographic and utilization patterns of ED patients. The key objectives of this analysis are to determine the appropriate databases containing real-world data on ED utilization in Canada and to extract, analyze, and summarize relevant datasets on ED patient demographics and utilization patterns.
