In panel A the median Emergency Department Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation (ED APACHE-IV) score is presented per quartile Emergency Department Length of Stay (ED-LOS), with 95% Confidence intervals. The ED APACHE-IV score uses the most deviated physiological variables from ED admission until 24 h after ICU admission, which differs from the ICU APACHE-IV score which only contains the most deviated physiological variables from the first 24 h of ICU admission. Panel B shows the mean delta APACHE-IV per quartile ED-LOS. The delta APACHE-IV is calculated as follows: ED APACHE-IV score—ICU APACHE-IV score
