This study aimed to determine predictors of length of stay within a geriatric assessment and rehabilitation unit at Bundoora Extended Care Centre. We conducted a retrospective examination of demographic and medical characteristics of the patients, and the characteristics of admission care programs (assessment, rehabilitation, booked and emergency respite care, and interim care), and determinants and predictors of length of stay. The mean length of stay was 28 days, varying from 12 to 50 days between care programs. Diagnostic category, stream of care and activities of daily living score were the major predictors of length of stay, together accounting for 20 per cent of the variance (R2 = 0.20).
本研究旨在确定邦多拉扩展护理中心老年评估与康复单元内住院时间的预测因素。我们对患者的人口统计学和医学特征、入院护理项目（评估、康复、预约和紧急喘息护理以及临时护理）的特征以及住院时间的决定因素和预测因素进行了回顾性研究。平均住院时间为28天，不同护理项目之间的住院时间从12天到50天不等。诊断类别、护理流程和日常生活活动评分是住院时间的主要预测因素，共同解释了20%的方差（R2 = 0.20）。
