What is ESI Triage: Levels and Examples about?

The Emergency Severity Index (ESI) is a 5-level triage algorithm that categorizes ED patients based on acuity and resource needs. It was developed in 1998 to quickly sort patients based on urgency to improve ED flow. The ESI facilitates prioritization by determining who should be seen first and how long less urgent patients can safely wait. It has benefits like rapid identification and sorting of patients and is simple for nurses to use.
