    • The potential of point-of-care diagnostics to optimise prehospital trauma triage a systematic review of literature
    Authors: Leonard, Stojek; Dan, Bieler; Anne, Neubert;  Advisor: -;  Co-Author: - (2023)

    In the prehospital care of potentially seriously injured patients resource allocation adapted to injury severity (triage) is a challenging. Insufficiently specified triage algorithms lead to the unnecessary activation of a trauma team (over-triage), resulting in ineffective consumption of economic and human resources. A prehospital trauma triage algorithm must reliably identify a patient bleeding or suffering from significant brain injuries. By supplementing the prehospital triage algorithm with in-hospital established point-of-care (POC) tools the sensitivity of the prehospital triage is potentially increased.
