NCT ID NCT06846879

First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study is developing and testing a computer algorithm that uses hospital data to see if emergency room doctors are making the right choices about whether to admit patients to the hospital or send them home. Researchers will ask doctors and nurses for their input to refine the tool, then test it against a gold standard. The goal is to create a way for hospitals to monitor and improve the quality of emergency care for adults.
