摘要
The emergency severity index (ESI) is a 5-level triage system developed by American emergency physicians and nurses, which fulfils validity and reliability criteria. It consists of a triage algorithm with four decision points. For patients who do not need immediate care the severity of the presenting complaint and the required resources are assessed, which allows a triage level to be assigned. The instrument was translated into German using a standardized method. This accurate and authorized German version of the ESI is now available for use by nurses and physicians in emergency departments.
