ResumoABSTRACT Objective: to map and synthesize the strategies implemented for case management in transitional care for patients with complex needs in emergency services. Method: a scoping review conducted under the Joanna Briggs Institute guidance. Twenty-three studies were analyzed, with different methodological designs, on the strategies used in case management involving adult and elderly populations in emergency services. Results: the main strategies employed were patient risk stratification screening/identification, care management plan, coordination of care through multidisciplinary activities, support for the transition process, continuous patient monitoring, and follow-up. Final considerations: these strategies used structured approaches to care in emergency services to promote support for self-management and effective transitional care for people with complex needs, ensuring comprehensiveness, coordination, and continuity of care.
