Resumo: The general objective of the present study is to identify the clinical demand of patients cared for by nursing professionals according to the risk classification of an Emergency Care Unit, following the Manchester triage system. It is a quantitative descriptive study whose sample was composed of 364 patient records. The data was analyzed via the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences, using descriptive, bivariate statistics and Spearman’s correlation. The patient’s main complaints were: “Adult indisposition,” “Problems with the limbs,” “Abdominal pain,” and “Headaches.” There was inverse correlation between age and risk classification (rs = -0.14 p=0,005), and time of admittance and risk classification (rs = -1.02, p=0.046). We conclude that the patients classified according to risk presented urgent and non-urgent complaints. The higher the patient’s age and the later in the day they were admitted, the more severe their clinical condition. doi: 10.5216/ree.v16i2.21700.

Estudio descriptivo, cuantitativo, sobre muestra de 364 historias clínicas. Datos analizados con programa Statistical Package for the Social Science, utilizando estadística descriptiva, bivariada y test de correlación de Spearman. Las principales quejas de los pacientes fueron: “Indisposición del adulto”, “Problemas en los miembros”, “Dolor abdominal” y “Cefalea”. Existió correlación inversa entre faja etaria y clasificación de riesgo (rs = -0.14 p=0,005), y horarios de atención y clasificación de riesgo (rs = -1.02, p=0.046). Se concluyó en que los pacientes atendidos en la clasificación de riesgo presentaron demandas urgentes y no urgentes. Cuando más alta es la faja etaria del paciente y más tarde el horario de solicitud de atención, más grave ha resultado su condición clínica. doi: 10.5216/ree.v16i2.21700.Estudo com objetivo geral de identificar a demanda clínica dos pacientes atendidos por enfermeiros na classificação de risco de uma Unidade de Pronto Atendimento, segundo o protocolo de Manchester.
