“The first, very important novelty of these guidelines is precisely the stratification of risk: patients at low risk, to be discharged in peace, are immediately distinguished from those at intermediate and high risk, who are no longer automatically hospitalized as before, but followed further with a monitoring for 24-48 hours and, depending on the elements emerged, possibly discharged in a protected way, that is with controls arranged 5-7 days after the event, as an alternative to hospitalization, which is however tiring for the patient and aims to limit to cases where it is strictly necessary.”
