Vital signs obtained from patients in the triage unit are one of the most important factors in diagnosis as well as treatment. Vital signs can be measured accurately and precisely, provided certain procedures are followed. Therefore, these complex procedures introduce a heavy crowd in the triage unit. This problem in triage makes it difficult for patients to reach the treatment service they demand. Also, it has a negative influence on hospital staff duringfulfill their duties and reduces their productivity. To prevent these disruptions, it is necessary to develop the novel methodologies that improve the triage system. In this study, we designed a triage system that measures the vital signs simultaneously, consisting of body temperature, oxygen saturation, and blood pressure of the patient applying for triage and transfer data to the digital environment with a barcode system. It is aimed to directing the patient to the correct triage area faster by the usage of the our device huddling together the triage and patient registration procedures.Read More
