Analyzing Trends in DO Match Rates for Primary vs. Non-Primary Care (2020-2024)

obesity (30.7%), hypertension (21.0%), diabetes (18.3%).Only 7.4% met SIRS criteria.Mean LOS in ED U/S group and RPS group was 334 minutes (95%CI 303.5-364.3)and 390.6 minutes (95%CI 352.2-429) (P = 0.023) respectively.In the ED U/S group, mean LOS in patients with a surgical consult (11.6%) and without was 500.4mins (95%CI 412.3-588.4)and 312.2 minutes (95%CI 281.3-343.1)(P = 0.0003), respectively.Hospital admission in the ED U/S group (23.1%) accounted for a mean LOS of 460.1 min (95%CI 394.5-526.7)compared to 300.1 minutes (95%CI 332.1-268.1)(P < 0.005) for patients with ED discharge (76.9%).Conclusions: ED U/S use was associated with a 56.6 minute shorter LOS in the study population, which was statistically significant when compared to patients who had RPS, exemplifying the potential of ED U/S to expedite ED disposition in a county setting.These reductions in LOS were consistent across all PGY levels.Variables such as surgical consult and hospital admission influenced the potential of ED U/S to reduce LOS.
