Coneixement dels motius de visita en persones amb nivells d’atenció de baixa complexitat a un servei d’urgències hospitalari
Abstract
The aim was to find out the reasons why users of the emergency service (ED) with a triage level 4 and 5 attend the hospital ED instead of their Basic Health Area (ABS) and to know their level of health literacy. A cross-sectional descriptive study was carried out in the emergency department of the hospital in Figueres. The main reasons why users consult the ED instead of the ABS for low-complexity pathologies are the need for complementary tests and the lack of accessibility to the ABS. The level of education and knowing the possibility of emergency care in the ABS are associated with lower total scores in the HLS-EU-Q16 questionnaire. The results suggest the need to improve access to the ABS and to inform the population that in the ABS they can treat you urgently for pathologies of low complexity.
