Fig. 3From: A generic method for evaluating crowding in the emergency departmentBoxplot of number of arrivals, queue lengths and maximum queue lengths per day in 2013. The distribution of arrivals and queue length were non-normal with over-dispersion. Queue lengths (“all” as well as “maximum”) and arrivals differed between shifts (Kruskal-Wallis: p < 0.0001). This was true as well between weekdays and weekends for maximum queues and arrivals, but for all queues an association was found (Kruskal-Wallis: p = 0.1309)Back to article page
