Triage Emergency Method Version 2 (TEM v2). A new triage within hospital method
Our aim was to check if TEM v1, a new four-level in-hospital triage with good inter- and intra-rater reliability, reaches a large consensus among Italian triage experts. Finally we tried to improve the model and to create a new model: TEM v2. A 2 round modified Delphi study was conducted including 2...
