2024 SAEMF/ED Benchmarking Alliance Clinical Operations Research Grant - $50,000

Emergency Departments (EDs) care for 136 million patients annually. Triage is essential for ED operations, but can also be a bottleneck that uses significant nursing resources. This project will develop, validate, and evaluate an Artificial Intelligence Chatbot Augmented Triage using new transformative models that can be fine-tunable and adaptable to many ED settings. We believe this project will have major impacts on the care of ED patients by eliminating the triage bottleneck, optimizing nursing resources, and potentially reducing delays in diagnosing time-critical medical conditions.

*This grant is made possible through a generous donation from the ED Benchmarking Alliance.
