BACKGROUND
Emergency Departments around the world are under increasing pressure due to rising demand. In the United Kingdom ambulatory emergency care has been demonstrated to deliver safe and effective care for emergency patients and has now become an accepted treatment modality.
METHODS
This paper outlines a quality improvement project undertaken to evaluate an ambulatory emergency care centre implemented at a tertiary hospital in Perth, Western Australia, from February to August 2021.
RESULTS
The findings demonstrated a 4% improvement in the Western Australian Emergency Access Target for a four week period, a 6.3% reduction in the number of patients admitted with a length of stay less than 24 h and that patient's attending the Ambulatory Emergency Care Centre were managed as safely as if they were seen in the Emergency Department.
背景
由于需求不断增加，世界各地的急诊科面临越来越大的压力。在英国，流动急诊护理已被证明可为急诊患者提供安全有效的护理，现已成为一种公认的治疗方式。
方法
本文概述了一项质量改进项目，该项目于 2021 年 2 月至 8 月在澳大利亚西部珀斯的一家三级医院实施，以评估流动急诊护理中心。
结果
调查结果显示，在四周内，西澳大利亚州急诊准入目标提高了 4%，住院时间少于 24 小时的患者人数减少了 6.3%，而且在流动急诊护理中心就诊的患者的管理与在急诊科就诊的患者一样安全。
