Research Article: Proportion trends, cancer stage, and survival of patients with cancer diagnosed through emergency and nonemergency departments: a nationwide cohort study

Date Published: 2024-08-26

Abstract:
Introduction: To reduce mortality, the Taiwan government has vigorously promoted free cancer screening and preventive health screening services. Cancers are usually advanced by the time they are discovered in the emergency department. Through this study, we aimed to understand the characteristics of cancer patients diagnosed through the emergency department and thus identify high-risk populations by comparing cancer staging and survival rates in patients diagnosed in the emergency department and those diagnosed in the non-emergency department.
