Abstract
This research study is a prospective, randomized trial evaluating varied means of inputting structured clinical data into a prototype triage system. Three different methods of historical data entry were evaluated for efficiency, quality of obtained data and ease of use. The results show that using a "customized" form containing check-box entries for only the most commonly seen historical data and space for text entry of other information was the most accurate method of entering triage information and was nearly as fast and easy as free text entry.
