简要总结
Validation of a high-resolution, fast track pathway that combines the use of laboratory tests at the Point-of-Care Testing (POCT) and Point-of-Care ultrasound (POCUS) versus the classical pathway, in which blood samples are sent to the central laboratory and comprehensive radiological exams ordered, being equally effective, at a lower cost of care and time of stay in the emergency department.
