Filter by:The primary objective of this study is aimed at analyzing the ICU triage practices of clinicians at a cancer hospital with and without the use of an algorithm-based triage tool, and to assess whether or not the triage tool improves the consensus amongst practioners on the prioritization of patients for ICU admission. Secondary objectives include assessment of whether or not triage practices based on guidelines correlate with what is done in actual practice.
It is intended to show that a computer software called Trauma Decision System (TravmaDS) for the determination of the urgency of trauma patients who applied to Emergency Medical Clinic gives more accurate, more objective, faster results than the triage scored by medical and non-medical personnel and to show the fact that TraumaDS provides more patient satisfaction.
Due to an increasing number of patients admitted in emergency departments, many patients cannot be evaluated immediately after their admission. The function of "triage liaison physician" was introduced in Spring 2015. The objective of this study is to evaluate the impact of this new function on patients' flow in the ED.
Crowding in the emergency department (ED) is a well documented problem putting patients at risk of adverse outcomes. To combat this, most ED's use some form of triage. In the last two decades systematic triage or process triage has become the norm in most countries but this approach is supported by limited evidence. Our aim is to develop a faster triage model of only a few vital parameters, based on a data from a large cohort of unselected ED patients and evaluate if such a model combined with a clinical assessment by the ED nurse is inferior to existing triage models in a prospective cluster-randomized trial
Will clinical outcome for patients be improved if triage in Acute wards and Emergency rooms is supplemented with a prognostic biomarker?
The Swiss Emergency Triage Scale (SETS) in used for triage in emergency departments in Switzerland, France and Belgium. No validated triage scale is actually used by Emergency Medical Service (EMS) providers. The objective of this project is to evaluate the reliability and performance of triage by EMS providers with the SETS.
The purpose of this study is to examine if real time transmission of vital signs, ECG and chat communication between the prehospital ambulances and the emergency department has an effect on patient mortality, ICU admission, hospitalization time, time to doctor, time to treatment and time to diagnostics
This study will evaluate method correlation and mean bias between six B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) platforms.
The objective of this study is to explore the impact of a physician-nurse team supervising patient's flow on ED length of stay
The aim of this study is to evaluate the validity and the reproducibility of the canadian triage and acuity scale when applied by regular nurses for the triage of children in the Emergency Department.
