Abstract:

AbstractIntroduction:Simple Triage and Rapid Treatment (START) and more recently developed prehospital casualty triage algorithms are widely used, in part because they are easy to teach and learn, and can be performed rapidly. Every rapid triage protocol has inherent, significant limitations: (1) no mechanism of injury (MOI) considerations; (2) limited assessment points; and (3) no refinement in truly mass-casualty situations where transport of “minor” or “moderate” patients may be delayed.Hypothesis:When rapid initial triage protocols are utilized, a significant triage deficiency (“under-tria

Abstract:

COVID-19 triage protocols are resource allocation processes to deal with the potential lack of resources in Intensive Care Units (ICU). They have given rise to numerous ethical issues and controversies. Among them is the fear that people will be denied access to ICU on the basis of judgments about their quality of life, social value, frailty or age. This online Democratic Deliberation (DD) with members of the public aimed to discover the necessary considerations and conditions that make triage protocols more acceptable to guide future decisions in terms of the values and criteria that must und

AbstractIntroductionShortening response time to an emergency call leads to the success of resuscitation by chest compression and defibrillation. However, response by ambulance or fire truck is not fast enough for resuscitation in Japan. In rural areas, response times can be more than 10 minutes. One possible way to shorten the response time is to establish a system of first responders (eg, police officers or firefighters) who are trained appropriately to perform resuscitation. Another possible way is to use a system of Community First Responders (CFRs) who are trained neighbors. At present, th

The history of triage started from the French battle field. In- hospital ED triage started in early 1960's from Baltimore. It is now an essential component of modern ED. Triage is not only to sort out patients as per their criticality, but it also serves the purpose of streamlining the patients so that the patient receives right treatment at the right time in the appropriate area. It helps to manage the ED overcrowding by better flow of patients.

As one of the primary resources for Catholics concerned about moral issues in health care, the ethicists of The National Catholic Bioethics Center have received many questions regarding triage protocols in place during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Others expressly discourage appeals to ethical principles that are religious in nature or connected to systems of religious belief.

BackgroundFollowing the results of randomized clinical trials supporting the use of mechanical thrombectomy (MT) with tissue plasminogen activator for emergent large vessel occlusion (ELVO), our state Stroke Task Force convened to: update legislation to recognize differences between Primary Stroke Centers (PSCs) and Comprehensive Stroke Centers (CSCs); and update Emergency Medical Services (EMS) protocols to triage direct transport of suspected ELVO patients to CSCs.PurposeWe developed a single-session training curriculum for EMS personnel focused on the Los Angeles Motor Scale (LAMS) score, i

Abstract:

Introduction. The Emergency Telephone Consultation Center in Tokyo (#7119) was the first telephone triage system in Japan and has operated since 2007. This study examined the revision of the #7119 protocol by referring the linked data to each code of the triage protocol. Methods. We selected candidates based on the medical codes targeted by the revision, linking data from the nurses’ decisions in triage and the patients’ condition severity when the ambulance arrived at the hospital, gathering data from June 1, 2016, to December 31, 2017. Then, several emergency physicians evaluated the cases a

Abstract:

AbstractProfessional societies have developed recommendations for patient triage protocols, but wide variations in triage patterns for many acute conditions exist among hospitals in the United States. Differences in hospitals’ triage patterns can be attributed to factors such as physician behavior, hospital policy and real-time conditions such as intensive care unit capacity. The patient safety concern is that patients evaluated for admission to the intensive care unit during times of high intensive care unit capacity may have adverse outcomes related to delays in care. Because standardization

Abstract:

Background The process of triaging is performed as an effective solution to balance limited resources against high patient volumes, based on an assessment of the patient’s medical condition and the application of an established patient categorization protocol. In Princess Marina Hospital (PMH), a national referral government hospital in the capital city of Botswana, the Princess Marina Hospital Accident and Emergency Centre Triage Scale (PATS) has been in use since 2010. Because the rules of these triage scales are very well defined, these protocols have been shown to be amenable to translatio

Abstract:

Mass accidents do not happen often, but when they do, they cause a significant disruption in the functioning of a society with a large number of casualties and an increased percentage of deaths among the injured. The aim of the work is to present the way of organization within the emergency medical aid service in the event of a mass accident. Numerous services are involved in caring for the injured, so their mutual cooperation is important, as is the functioning within each service. Depending on the type of event, the leader of the intervention should be from the service that is responsible fo

Delivering efficient emergency health care in low-income countries presents significant challenges due to various factors, including limited resources, inadequate infrastructure, and socio-economic barriers. This article explores the complexities associated with emergency care delivery in resource-limited settings. Issues such as pre-hospital care, triage, waiting times, out-of-pocket expenditures, and the implementation of international protocols with limited resources. The lack of access to well-equipped ambulances, trained personnel, and basic first aid knowledge contributes to the difficul

Abstract Introduction The coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic has placed intensive care units (ICU) triage at the center of bioethical discussions. National and international triage guidelines emerged from professional and governmental bodies and have led to controversial discussions about which criteria—e.g. medical prognosis, age, life-expectancy or quality of life—are ethically acceptable. The paper presents the main points of agreement and disagreement in triage protocols and reviews the ethical debate surrounding them.

Abstract:

The establishment of the Grampians After-Hours Service has led to the development of a quality framework for nurse telephone triage. The service providers believe this framework is the basis for the service?s success. While quality frameworks including critical evaluation and peer review are not new to the health industry, the development of organisational systems to improve quality in afterhours services is innovative. The framework developed is comprehensive, evidenced-based and emphasises training, protocols and documentation. It also involves a continuous and nonpunitive quality review pro

Abstract:

Due to COVID-19’s strain on health systems across the globe, triage protocols determine how to allocate scarce medical resources with the worthy goal of maximising the number of lives saved. However, due to racial biases and long-standing health inequities, the common method of ranking patients based on impersonal numeric representations of their morbidity is associated with disproportionately pronounced racial disparities. In response, policymakers have issued statements of solidarity. However, translating support into responsive COVID-19 policy is rife with complexity. Triage does not easily
