  • Title: Implementing triage in a children's assessment unit.
    Author: Scoble M.
    Journal: Nurs Stand; ; 18(34):41-4. PubMed ID: 15151023.
    Abstract:
    The use of a triage system for patients attending A&E departments is an established practice. However, the use of such a system in assessment units is less formal and often left to individual clinical judgement. This article describes how the Manchester Triage System (MTS) was introduced, audited and adopted in a children's assessment unit (CAU) at the Royal Gwent Hospitals.
