== Reporting of Transfer Delays ==

*Reported as count, Mean, Sum, and Cumulative counts and percentage separately for High Obs and regular ward

*Reported as count, Mean (average), Sum (Total), and Cumulative counts and percentage separately for High Obs and regular ward

*A - Determine the patients who left alive to a lower level of care and

** A1 - Have transfer delays

Line 75:

** Total True delays = Transfer delays from A1 + zeroes from A2 ; Total N = A1 + A2; Average True Delays=Total True Delays / Total N

** Total transfer delays > 4 hours - sum up those patients from A1 by excluding those with transfer delays <= 4 hours and compute the Average.

** Distribution of true transfer delays - counts ~~and~~ cumulative counts and percentage

** Distribution of true transfer delays - counts, cumulative counts and percentage
