Abstract
Aim: During the coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, the strict limitations imposed on access to many healthcare institutions may effect emergency department (ED) attendances with regards to appropriateness. Thus, this study aimed to investigate the urgency level of ED attendances and the frequency of inappropriate use (IU) during the COVID-19 pandemic.
