 ==Definition and Derivation==
 *LOS per location is simply calculated as the difference between the End Date/Time and Start Date/Time of stay in that location
-* First location:  Start date/time= first location = ICU discharge date/time – ICU admit date/time (expressed in days) where ICU discharge date/time = [[Dispo_DtTm]] and ICU admit date/time = [[Admit DtTm]]
+*Depending on the number of locations (''n'') where the patient stayed, we have ''n'' locations and ''n'' start date/time
+**Location 1:  Start date/time= first location start date/time and End Date/time= second location start date/time
+**Location 2: Start date/time= second location start date/time and End Date/time= third location start date/time
+**Location 3: Start date/time= third location start date/time and End Date/time= fourth location start date/time
+**Location ''n'' (last location): Start date/time= ''n''th  location start date/time and End Date/time= [[Dispo_DtTm]]
+*if there is only one location, Start date/time= first location start date/time and End Date/time= [[Dispo_DtTm]]
 * Average ICU LOS (in days to 1 decimal place)
 * Median ICU LOS (in days to 1 decimal place)
