The objective of this review is to identify the effects of emergency department (ED) overcrowding on admitted patient outcomes.More specifically, the questions are: does ED overcrowding increase the admitted patient's mortality? Does ED overcrowding increase the admitted patient's hospital length-of-stay? Does ED overcrowding increase the delay in door-to-needle time to treatment (time to antibiotic, time to thrombolysis and time to analgesic)?
