Triage ppt
Triage is the process of sorting patients based on the urgency of their condition to determine priority of treatment. The goal is to provide the right care to the right patient at the right time. There are different categories for triage, such as immediate, urgent, less urgent and non-urgent. The triage nurse conducts an initial assessment of the patient's airway, breathing, circulation and disability level to identify life-threatening issues and assign an acuity level for treatment. Re-triage is important as a patient's condition may deteriorate while waiting. The triage nurse plays a key role in efficiently sorting and treating patients based on need.
Triage
The document discusses triage in emergency nursing. It defines triage as sorting patients based on acuity to provide the most urgent care first when resources are limited. A triage nurse must quickly identify life-threatening issues and determine each patient's priority level using standardized rating systems. The document outlines the primary and secondary assessments emergency nurses conduct to evaluate patients and identify issues requiring immediate treatment versus those that can wait. The goal of triage is to do the greatest good for the greatest number.
Emergency triage
The document discusses emergency triage in a hospital emergency department. It describes triage as a process where a nurse rapidly evaluates patients upon arrival to determine the level of acuity and priority for care. The triage nurse assesses factors like chief complaint, appearance, vital signs, history and assigns the patient to one of five standardized triage levels, from level 1 being life-threatening to level 5 being non-urgent, with corresponding timeframes for clinician assessment. The primary role of the triage nurse is to make decisions about priority of care while monitoring for communicable diseases or violence.
TRIAGE
Triage is the process of prioritizing patients according to the urgency of their need for care. It aims to ensure patients are treated in order of clinical urgency and receive timely care. There are three main types of triage - primary triage in the field, secondary triage in the emergency department, and tertiary triage by specialists. The START and SAVE methods are used for disaster triage in the field to categorize patients into immediate, delayed, or minimal care/expectant groups. In the ED, patients are assigned colors based on their condition - red for most urgent, yellow intermediate, green less urgent, and black for deceased. Documentation, equipment, and designated triage teams are needed to properly conduct triage

Triage is the process of prioritizing patients based on the urgency of their condition. It aims to direct patients to the right care provider and level of care in a timely manner. During triage, patients are assessed and assigned a color code of red, yellow, green, or black to indicate if their condition is immediate, delayed, minor, or expectant. This determines the order and priority of treatment. The triage nurse's role is to quickly assess patients, maintain privacy, control crowds, communicate with staff, and direct patients to the appropriate care.

Triage is the process of sorting injured patients based on their need for immediate medical treatment. It allows for prioritization of care when resources are insufficient for all patients. There are typically four categories in a triage system - Immediate (red), requiring treatment now or the patient will die; Delayed (yellow), serious injuries but stable for now; Minimal (green), minor injuries can wait; and Expectant (black), little chance of survival so comfort care only. The document provides examples of types of injuries that would fall under each category and explains the purpose and process of triaging multiple patients in a disaster or emergency situation.

Triage is the process of sorting patients into priority groups for treatment based on the severity of their condition. It is used in mass casualty incidents to provide the greatest benefit to the largest number of patients when resources are limited. Patients are categorized as red (highest priority), yellow, green, or black (dead) based on their airway, breathing, circulation, and mental status. The START method involves a rapid initial assessment and tagging of patients to identify those needing immediate care. Secondary triage provides a more thorough reassessment once resources are available. Special considerations are made for injured rescuers, hysterical patients, children, and those with hypothermia or multiple injuries. An incident command system is activated to coordinate the emergency

Triage system of ambulance
Ambulance services are typically organized into different levels of care, including:
1. **Basic Life Support (BLS) Ambulances:** These provide basic medical care, such as first aid, CPR, and transportation to a hospital.
2. **Advanced Life Support (ALS) Ambulances:** Staffed with paramedics who can administer advanced medical treatments like IV medications and intubation.
3. **Specialized Units:** Some ambulances are equipped for specific purposes, like neonatal transport or air ambulance services.
In emergencies and disasters, a triage system is crucial to efficiently allocate resources and prioritize care. This system typically categorizes patients into:
1. **Immediate:** Those with life-threatening injuries who require immediate attention.
2. **Delayed:** Patients with serious injuries but not immediately life-threatening. They can wait for treatment.
3. **Minimal:** Patients with minor injuries or illnesses.
4. **Expectant:** Those with catastrophic injuries for whom survival is unlikely despite intervention.
The goal is to save as many lives as possible with the available resources by treating those who can benefit the most.Acute respiratory failure is a critical medical condition characterized by the inability of the respiratory system to maintain adequate oxygenation and/or remove carbon dioxide from the blood. Let's break down your questions:
1. **Etiopathogenesis**: Acute respiratory failure can result from various causes, including respiratory, cardiac, neuromuscular, and metabolic factors. Common etiologies include severe pneumonia, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) exacerbation, pulmonary embolism, heart failure, trauma, drug overdose, or neurological conditions affecting respiratory muscles.
2. **Diagnostics**: Diagnosing acute respiratory failure typically involves clinical evaluation, physical examination, and diagnostic tests. Key tests may include arterial blood gas analysis (to assess oxygen and carbon dioxide levels), chest X-rays or CT scans (to identify underlying lung or cardiac conditions), and pulmonary function tests. Electrocardiograms (ECGs) and laboratory tests may also be performed.
3. **Clinical Presentation**: Patients with acute respiratory failure may exhibit symptoms like severe shortness of breath, rapid breathing, increased heart rate, confusion, cyanosis (blue discoloration of lips and extremities), and altered mental status.

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune Disease
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.
