Acuity and Anxiety From the Patient's Perspective in the Emergency Department.

Kristensson Ekwall, Anna LU (2013) In Journal of Emergency Nursing 39(6). p.534-538
Abstract
Knowledge of a patient's perception of her medical needs and urgency may make it possible for emergency nurses to communicate the triage decision and make the patient understand the assessment and triage category. The aim of this study was to compare the patients' own assessments of their acuity to the triage nurse's assessment, as well as describe patient satisfaction and levels of anxiety.
