No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Emergency departments (ED) are becoming increasingly over-crowded, with patients facing prolonged waiting times. Therefore, a safe and rapid assessment that identifies patients with low severity that could be treated as outpatients is essential for improving the workflow within the ED.

The rationale of this IDEAL study is to provide guidance to safely decrease the number of hospital admissions through identification of low risk patients with the biomarker MR-proADM. This will be tested in a pilot study first.
