    Document: The impact of an outbreak of a transmittable respiratory illness on ED crowding has not been assessed because it is uncommon to obtain serial data for patients visiting the ED in order to make comparisons before and after the outbreak. This study confirmed important information regarding the outbreak of highly transmittable diseases associated with ED use before and after the outbreak. Crude ED usage was higher than the annual increase, particularly in UF patients. For young pediatric patients, the average age and duration of symptoms upon ED arrival was significantly increased after the outbreak. Preventive actions for increased use of emergency resources, such as pre-hospital emergency counseling services, diversion of ambulance transportation, ED admission, and early inpatient discharge, are needed immediately after the outbreak of disease in the ED.
