Abstract
Multiple factors delineate the severity of infant illness, which can make triage of this patient population challenging. Triage may become especially difficult when the infant's illness is chronic and characterized by subtle and/or rapid changes. When the Emergency Severity Index (ESI) was implemented at this hospital (2003), it was well established as being highly reliable in adult patients. The purpose of this research was to determine intra- and inter-rater reliability of the ESI in infants.
