"Using the 5-tier triage acuity system endorsed by the Emergency Nurses Association and the American College of Emergency Physicians, this brand new handbook delivers quick access to triage protocols for the most common complaints seen in emergency care settings. The 5-tier triage acuity system assigns five acuity levels based on severity and need for intervention to ensure better accuracy and consistency among staff and greatly reduce the risks involved with triage. This cutting-edge system is rapidly becoming the international standard for assessing patients face-to-face in emergency and urgent care clinical units."--Résumé de l'éditeur.
