No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This observational study aims to determine the correlation between capillary refill time (CRT) and vital parameters in patients presenting to the emergency department.

It explores whether CRT is associated with triage categories and vital signs in non-traumatic patients, including oxygen saturation (SpO₂), heart rate, systolic and diastolic blood pressure, body temperature, forearm temperature, and respiratory rate.

Patients admitted to the emergency department of a training and research hospital were assigned triage codes (green, yellow, red). Their CRT was measured three times, and vital signs were recorded accordingly.

Conditions

  • Triage
  • Emergency Medical Services
  • Vital Signs Monitoring
  • Hypoperfusion
  • Hemodynamic Instability

Interventions

OTHER

No clinical intervention (observational study only)

This is an observational study. No experimental or clinical intervention was applied. Only non-invasive data collection such as capillary refill time and vital sign measurements was performed.
