NCT06571838

Brief Summary

This study aims to introduce an automated triaging system called DAISY into the Emergency Department (ED) to give patients the opportunity to self-direct their initial consultation. This is a new system in development, with a robot like the image at the top of this sheet, a touchscreen that will ask patients a number of questions about their current health (as a Triage nurse or doctor in the Emergency Department may do) but also with some attached devices (like a blood pressure monitor and thermometer) that patients can use to help DAISY assess patients' current health. This study aims to demonstrate how patients can interact with the automated system to produce a report that is useful for the doctors and nurses in the ED. The study will examine the duration and timeliness of the automated assessment to see if it frees up staff time and determine how patients find the experience of using the DAISY system.
