Impact of a pandemic triage tool on intensive care admission

Year: 2008
Type: conference-abstract
Abstract: The issues of pandemic preparedness and the use of critical care resources in a pandemic have been of increased interest recently [ 1 ]. We assessed the effect of a proposed pandemic critical care triage tool [ 2 ] on admissions to the ICU. The tool aims to identify patients who will most benefit from admission to the ICU and excludes patients considered 'too well', 'too sick', or with comorbidities likely to limit survival in the shorter term.
