Inappropriate triage following acute injury may result in misallocation of specialized health resources, increased health care costs, reduced or delayed access to care, and increased death and disability. Although triage criteria have been developed, they vary widely, and inappropriate triage rates are high (50% - 85%). The purpose of this project was to evaluate the ability of decision tree induction to predict need for specialized trauma resources in acutely injured persons. We considered any person who was admitted to the trauma center's ICU or died prior to being admitted to the ICU as needing specialized trauma resources.
急性损伤后不恰当的分诊可能导致专业医疗资源分配不当、医疗成本增加、获得治疗的机会减少或延迟,以及死亡和残疾人数增加。尽管已经制定了分诊标准,但这些标准差异很大,不恰当的分诊率很高(50% - 85%)。本项目的目的是评估决策树归纳法预测急性损伤患者对专业创伤资源需求的能力。我们将任何入住创伤中心重症监护病房(ICU)或在入住ICU之前死亡的人视为需要专业创伤资源。
