LoS for the total sample was slightly more than 10 days, for transferred patients just over 13, for ICU admissions just over 14, and for patients who died in hospital just over 15 making the LoS range for all categories of the total sample just over 10 to just over 15 days. COVID-19 complications having a statistically significant association with LoS were Acute Kidney Injury with 22% prolonged LoS, and ARDS with a 48% prolonged LoS (Table 4).
