摘要
This work aims to evidence the operability and effectiveness of using Fast-Track strategy to manage overcrowding in Emergency Departments. This study presents the results of a literature review on Fast-Track using database of the implementation of a Restructuring Project for the Implementation of Humanization in the Flow of Patients at Emergency Care Units (UPA-24h), developed by the Fluminense Federal University in partnership with the Brazilian Ministry of Health. Its results mainly reveal that overcrowding is a common phenomenon in hospitals, and that a Fast-Track approach has been widely used by hospital system managers to mitigate overcrowding impacts.
