Article Synopsis
- * After reviewing over 10,000 articles, six studies were included, with three high-quality studies involving 49,376 patients being suitable for meta-analysis.
- * Findings indicated no significant differences in safety outcomes between direct discharge home and ward transfer, leading to very low-to-low certainty in the evidence regarding the safety of DDH practices.
Purpose: We evaluated the effects of after-hours/nighttime patient transfers out of the ICU on patient outcomes, by performing a systematic review and meta-analysis (PROSPERO CRD 42017074082).
