Follow-Up of Low-Acuity Patients After Redirection From a Swiss Emergency Department Using an Electronic Triage Application: Protocol for a Single-Center Prospective Cohort Study

We expect the redirection process of low-acuity patients to other health care facilities using an electronic clinical support system to be safe and efficient. If results are positive, application of this reproducible strategy could reduce the number of patients treated in EDs and provide alternative health care pathways for low-acuity patients.

Abstract

We expect the redirection process of low-acuity patients to other health care facilities using an electronic clinical support system to be safe and efficient. If results are positive, application of this reproducible strategy could reduce the number of patients treated in EDs and provide alternative health care pathways for low-acuity patients.
