COVID-19 had no impact on emergency urological admissions at an Australian tertiary hospital.

Despite the pervasive fear of the COVID-19 pandemic and multiple, substantial alterations to hospital systems, structures and elective operating restrictions, no significant difference in numbers or acuity of emergency admissions were observed. Due to limitations in elective operating, there was an expected reduction in planned admissions. Our findings are in contrast to multiple recent studies and may be the result of our patient demographic where health-seeking behaviours appear to have not been significantly influenced by the pandemic.
