Meanings of nonelective in English

Significant predictors of prolonged hospital stay were postoperative stroke, advanced age, and nonelective operation.

We stratified results by elective and nonelective admissions.

Participants: Enrolled patients were nonelective hospital admissions aged 80 years or older who stayed in hospital at least 48 hours.

We used a split-sample design to derive and validate an index to predict the risk of death or nonelective readmission within 30 days after discharge.
