Abstract :
[en] To cope with overcrowding, a consequence of their constant growth, emergency departments have implemented operational strategies based on triage systems. Despite its interest, nurse triage has been limited by several hindrances, and new strategies are emerging. Among those, advanced nurse triage, allowing a nurse to initiate the diagnostic process just after categorization of the patient, seems to be promising. A study on advanced nurse triage for patients presenting with chest pain has been conducted in the emergency department of the CHU of Liège. The encouraging results obtained following this new system demonstrate a reduction of the delay to management of patients, and a reduction of the total length of stay in the emergency unit mainly during overcrowding periods. Advanced nurse triage, in addition to a conventional triage during overcrowding periods, improves management of patients in terms of time and reduces the total time spent in the emergency department. © 2018 Revue Medicale de Liege.
