Outpatient
Triage
- No hemorrhagic manifestations and patient is well-hydrated:
home treatment
- Hemorrhagic manifestations or hydration borderline:
outpatient observation center or hospitalization
- Warning signs (even without profound shock) or DSS:
hospitalize
For outpatient triage:
- If the patient has no hemorrhagic manifestations and is
well-hydrated, he or she can be sent home with instructions
for "follow-up."
- If there are hemorrhagic manifestations or hydration status
is borderline, the patient should be observed, either in
an outpatient observation center or in the hospital.
- If warning signs are present even without evidence of
shock, or if DSS is present, the patient should be hospitalized.
