Abstract
Introduction
Emergency Department (ED) length of stay is a key performance indicator of healthcare services, as prolonged stays are associated with adverse patient outcomes, increased financial burden, and higher mortality. This study aimed to assess ED length of stay and associated factors among patients in public hospitals in Kellam Wollega, Ethiopia, 2025.
