Medical sorting is aimed at assessment of disease severity and has to be carried out within a short time to determine the priorities for patient care and transportation to the most appropriate place for future treatment. The goal of this study was to provide an integrative review by analyzing the publications on the most common triage systems worldwide in order to select and implement the most reliable system at emergency departments. We searched for publications relevant to our comparative analysis in evidence-based medicine databases. A total of 1,740 literary sources were identified, of which 42 were selected for analysis. Comparative analysis of different triage systems may help implementing the most efficient system in Kazakhstan. The Emergency Severity Index is considered the most reliable and accurate tool used in international practice, and it could provide a basis for introduction of triage system at emergency departments in Kazakhstan.

“…Triage system is patient assessment systems that is made a priority evaluation along with patients' vital signs and symptoms for early recognition of serious patients in the crowded emergency departments and deliver to early treatment. However, it is known that even Triage systems cannot fully eliminate these problems and several additional methods are being sought by researchers (Ozüçelik, 2013). It is obvious that the omitting of the critical patients and in particular delaying of the treatment of intensive care patients is causes vital issue.…”

Emergency departments are one of the most important units in the hospital where there are special units and many problems. At the beginning of these problems, emergency services are crowded and urgent patient care planning is difficult. The applications such as triage system are used for these problems. However it is known that such applications do not fully solve these problems. In this study, a fuzzy logic based clinical decision support system (CDSS) was developed for the classification of emergency patients. In the study, application complaints and medical data of 180 non-anonymous patients in Muğla Sıtkı Koçman University Training and Research Hospital were used. The 95 of the patients are female, 85 are male and the average age is 46. In order to analysis the performance of the performed system, the results of the application and the decisions of the specialist doctor were compared statistically (accuracy, sensitivity and specificity). Consequently, the accuracy of the realized system 83%, sensitivity 87% and specificity 76.6% was found. Provided that the most recent decision belongs to the expert physician, the development of this kind of CDSS is thought to be beneficial in terms of serious time and space in the emergency departments of the hospitals, especially during intensive periods.
