The triaging system in the emergency wing of Government Medical College Hospital, Thiruvananthapuram, will be revamped so that those reaching the casualty with acute emergencies, including chest pain/heart attack or stroke, can be identified fast and managed efficiently without delay, a statement issued by the office of Health Minister Veena George said.
The triaging system in MCH’s emergency wing is being re-oriented according to the recommendations of an expert committee, which had been set up to review the functioning of MCH and to come up with suggestions on how patient care services should be prioritised to minimise loss of lives, the statement said.
