Pages

  529-544

Abstract

 Background and Objectives: Patient inappropriate and unnecessary stay in a Hospital results in a reduction of Hospital productivity and an increase in health system expenditures. The aim of this study was to evaluate unnecessary stay of patients in Iranian Hospitals. Subjects and Methods: This study was conducted using a Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis approach. Seven electronic databases and two search engines were searched for original research papers published between March 2006 and April 2017 on patients’ unnecessary stay. Bibliography section of the retrieved papers and related journals were also searched for papers that were not yet indexed in these databases. All retrieved papers were assessed using a valid checklist before analysis. Data were analysed using Comprehensive Meta-Analysis software. Results: A total of 805 publications were reviewed, of which 13 met the study inclusion criteria. Overall, 4. 2% of Hospital days were rated as inappropriate and unnecessary (95% Cl: 1. 8-9. 4%). The highest unnecessary stays was recorded in a public Hospital in Tehran in 2013, 49% (95% Cl: 35. 7-62. 5%) and the lowest unnecessary stays was found in an educational Hospital in Tehran in 2013, 0. 2% (95% Cl: 0. 1-0. 5%). Significant statistical correlation was observed between average inappropriate length of stay, year of study and sample size (P<0. 05). Conclusion: Hospital resources are wasted due to patients’ unnecessary stays. Thus, policymakers and managers should take serious measures to decrease patients’ unnecessary stays in Hospitals.
