BACKGROUND
Emergency department (ED) overcrowding with boarders and waiting times are a significant concern in many countries.
OBJECTIVE
We aim to show the relationship between boarders in the ED and the percentage time to disposition in under 6 h for our ED patients.
METHOD
A review was carried out to show the percentage of patients presenting to the ED compliant with a 6-h standard per day compared to the number of attendances, the number of admissions to the hospital, and the number of boarders in the ED per day.
RESULTS
Over the 2-year study period, there was an average 0.37% fall in the ED's rate of compliance per day, with a 6-h standard for each boarder in the ED.
CONCLUSION
Boarding patients in the ED has a negative effect on compliance with our 6-h standard of time to disposition.
背景
急诊科（ED）存在住院待处理患者导致拥挤以及等待时间过长的问题，这在许多国家都是一个重大关切。
目的
我们旨在展示急诊科住院待处理患者与我们急诊科患者在6小时内得到处置的时间百分比之间的关系。
方法
进行了一项回顾性研究，以显示每天到急诊科就诊且符合6小时标准的患者百分比与就诊人数、住院人数以及急诊科每天住院待处理患者人数的对比情况。
结果
在为期两年的研究期间，急诊科每天符合6小时标准的比率平均下降0.37%，即急诊科每有一名住院待处理患者。
结论
急诊科的住院待处理患者对我们6小时处置时间标准的达标率有负面影响。
