Emergency Department Visits by Lung Cancer Patients in Korea

초록

Although lung cancer patients frequently require emergency medical care due to acute unbearable symptoms and life-threatening conditions, there are limited data on them at the emergency departments (ED). National Emergency Department Information System Database (NEDIS) collects information about ED visits in Korean population. We aimed to determine the frequency and main causes of emergency consultations and the predicting factors for hospital admissions and deaths.
