Overview

Descriptive study evaluates triage knowledge and practices of nurses in a pediatric emergency department, highlighting training gaps.

Key Points

  • Only 40.7% of nurses received formal triage training, indicating a critical gap in essential knowledge.
  • Despite 62.9% reporting high confidence in triaging, only 40.7% correctly answered triage questions, revealing knowledge deficits.
  • The analysis was based on responses from 27 nurses using a structured questionnaire and statistical methods to find associations.
  • Improving training and implementing 24-hour triage can enhance patient care quality in pediatric emergency settings.
