Understanding the complexity of the patients treated in emergency departments allow hospitals to plan actions aimed at rationalizing demand and, from a service point of view, offering different levels of emergency care based on patient needs.
Diagnoses and triage classification, combined
Such a Profile is presented as an easy-to-use, drill-down report offering a range of information from a summary of global results to a more detailed analysis based on different aspects and type of demand. The ER Profile builds on pre-coded diagnoses and triage registered by hospitals in their Emergency department information system.
IASIST offers a specific solution based on each hospital's data, with the possibility of obtaining benchmark results where only triage or diagnosis information is available.
Aware that in many hospitals the clinical coding of emergency cases has not been solved yet, IASIST is able to offer an automatic coding service based on the available text-like diagnostic.
A broad range of key dimensions
The ER Profile focuses on four key dimensions of metrics to improve knowledge and management information:
- Demand
- Casemix
- Complexity (according to triage classification)
- Waiting times
