- ÍtemClasificador de Triage(Fundación Universitaria Los Libertadores. Sede Bogotá., ) Sánchez Gómez, Ana María;; Castillo, Julio AlbertoOften the assistance to the emergency service can become a nuisance due to the extensive times that are waiting to be attended in addition to the erroneous classifications in the triage level. What causes disagreement on the part of the patients who attend and expect them to relieve the symptoms they present in the shortest possible time. That is why there is a Triage guide in the Emergency Department that arises from the need for a reliable instrument to determine the complexity of the patient's urgency, which allows greater objectivity in the process, facilitates the development of abilities of the nurse to evaluate the patient and to have a consultation document during decision making. Considering that the people who attend the service expect to receive the best care according to their delicate state of health, the triage system should not be converted into a mere administrative procedure, since its main objective is to identify the patient in critical condition, For this, the symptoms should be evaluated and according to the levels of prioritization, based on clinical criteria, give the best care to the patient. This triage model includes the adoption of a classification system for adult patient urgency in three levels of complexity, a patient evaluation guide based on signs and symptoms organized by systems, as well as an easy-to-fill triage format and process standardization. For all the above, a Triage Classification system must be designed in accordance with the physical, human resources, the demand for services and the institutional policies of the hospital in which it is to be implemented; It never intends to leave aside the clinical judgment of the professional who performs the evaluation of the patient, always being aware of the human condition and vulnerability that the patient presents when they attend this type of services
