Development and Validation of the Emergency Department Transitions Measure
Listen to this summary
The authors aimed to develop and validate a measure to assess the quality of care transitions for patients discharged from the emergency department (ED) who experience diagnostic uncertainty. Through a mixed methods approach, they created the Emergency Department Transitions (EDT) measure, which consists of 10 items demonstrating strong reliability and validity. This tool can be utilized in future clinical and research settings to evaluate the effectiveness of interventions aimed at improving care transitions in the ED.
