Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Predicted Emergency Severity Index (ESI) levels 1-3 At the triage area in the emergency department Triage classification determined by machine learning-based models (Random Forest, XGBoost, Gradient Boosting), compared against expert consensus using ESI version 5. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Model performance (AUROC, accuracy, recall, F1-score, precision) After model evaluation in the internal validation phase Computed from predictions on the held-out test dataset of 100 patients | — |
