Özet

Aim: In the emergency department (ED), some patients are discharged after their initial diagnosis and treatment, whereas others are hospitalized for treatment and/or further diagnostic examination. The ED physician usually does not receive feedback regarding diagnostic accuracy, treatment effectiveness, or morbidity or mortality of the patient. In this study, patients in the ED without trauma were followed up to obtain their data.
