Glossary term
Triage
Reference only — not medical advice. See disclaimer.
The process of assessing the urgency of a patient's clinical condition to determine the speed and level of care required. In post-operative medical-tourism contexts, patients use symptom triage frameworks to decide whether a complication warrants immediate emergency care, a call to the operating clinic, or watchful waiting at home. Reliable triage requires clear criteria, escalation thresholds, and a known contact pathway back to the original surgical team.
