Primaire uitkomstmaten
The outcomes of interest are the safety and efficiency of the proposed triage strategies (NTS and/or Marburg) for "urgent diagnosis and/or fatal outcome".
The definition of “urgent diagnosis and/or fatal outcome” is defined as: death from any cause, acute coronary syndrome and/or urgent coronary revascularization, acute thoracic aortic dissection, pulmonary embolism, acute heart failure, peri(myo)carditis, (tension)pneumothorax.
Achtergrond van het onderzoek
An observational study that investigates the efficiency and safety of the Netherlands Triage System for the symptom chest pain using final outcome data. In addition, the study's prospective arm will evaluate the potential role of integrating the Marburg Heart Score as part of triage decision making.
Doel van het onderzoek
