SETTING<br />
RESULT / CONCLUSION<br />
Cross-sectional 4999 patients Whilst socio-economic deprivation was a significant determinant of perceptions of medical urgency,<br />
the effect was small and can probably be discounted as an important variab<strong>le</strong> determining such<br />
perceptions. An association was observed between patients' perceptions of doctor availability<br />
following a non-urgent consultation request and a heightened sense of medical urgency.<br />
Cross-sectional Questionnaire and note review 7 weeks<br />
267 adults A&E triaged to the 2 lowest priority<br />
treatment streams<br />
Taking into account the objective suitability of the health prob<strong>le</strong>m to be treated elsewhere, and the<br />
reasons for attending A&E given by the patients, it is estimated that, with similar health prob<strong>le</strong>ms,<br />
as few as 7% (95% CI 3%,10%) of the non-urgent A&E population may be expected to present to<br />
providers other than A&E in the future<br />
Cross-sectional Manchester triage system (category 1 or 2 to be seen within 10 minutes) is a sensitive tool for<br />
detecting those who need critical care not possib<strong>le</strong> to calculate specificity<br />

It is difficult to change patient behaviour to fit the demands of the health care system. Possibly, it<br />
would be better to change the system to fit the behaviour patterns of the patients.
