Abstract

Researchers at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, with a grant under section 1205 of the Emergency Medical Services Systems (EMSS) Act of 1973 from the National Center for Health Services Research (DHEW), are doing three research projects pertaining to the quality and effectiveness of care and management in the emergency department. Project 1 concerns assessing the impact of categorization of facilities and ambulance and communication improvements on the use of emergency departments and ambulances. Project 2 assesses the impact of triage nursing, patient exit interviews, patient advocacy, nursing audit, walk-in clinics and education of asthmatic patients on emergency department care. Project 3 investigates the effect of specific clinical procedures on patient outcome.
