Objective: To describe the characteristics of patients with non-urgent demand to the emergency room of an urban social security hospital. Methods: Observational study in a referral hospital. Stratified random sampling, 120 patients older than 14 years of priority IV (patients without commitment to vital functions or risk of immediate complication, which can be attended in outpatient room or decentralized offices). A validated predesigned questionnaire was applied. Performing descriptive statistics with IBM SPSS 24. Results: 66% of patients were female, most frequent ages over 65 years and between 20-40 years. 47% were active workers, with high school level or higher 86%, they had 83% personal cell phone and 73% wire TV or internet at home. 63% arrived at the public transport emergency, the delay time to the hospital was 30-60 minutes in 50% of cases and <30 minutes in 28%. He did not know his primary care center 33%, he was never treated before in this 57% and did not go to another health facility prior to his 87% emergency arrival. Most frequent symptoms: malaise, odynophagia, diarrhea and low back pain; with presentation time between hours and days in 91% of cases. Conclusion: Non-urgent consultation patients in the emergency room are predominantly female, young and old people, who are active in work, with a high level of education and access to communications technology, reside near the hospital and do not know their primary care center. Objetivo: Describir las características de pacientes con demanda no urgente en el departamento de emergencia de un hospital urbano de la seguridad social en el Perú. Métodos: Estudio observacional realizado en un hospital nacional de referencia. Muestreo aleatorio estratificado en una semana, 120 pacientes mayores de 14 años de prioridad IV (signos vitales estables, sin riesgo de complicación inmediata y de consulta externa general).

El 47% fueron trabajadores activos, con nivel de instrucción secundaria o superior en 86% de casos. El 83% contaban con teléfono celular personal y el 73% con televisión por cable o internet en su domicilio. El 63% llegó a emergencia en transporte público. El tiempo de demora hasta el hospital fue 30-60 minutos en el 50% de casos y < 30minutos en 28%. El 33% no conocía su centro de atención primaria y el 87% no acudió a otro establecimiento de salud previo a su arribo a emergencia. Los síntomas más frecuentes incluyeron malestar general, odinofagia, diarrea y lumbalgia. El tiempo de enfermedad fue de horas a días en el 91% de casos. Conclusión: Los pacientes de consulta no urgente que acuden al servicio de emergencia son predominantemente de sexo femenino, adultos jóvenes y mayores, laboralmente activos, con alto nivel educativo y acceso a tecnología de comunicaciones, residentes en áreas cercanas al hospital y sin conocimiento de su centro de atención primaria. |
