Abstract

It is to be hoped that much more attention should be drawn toward properly constructing scenarios to ensure the accuracy of the decisions made by triage nurses, because there is a history of poorly-constructed scenarios in previous research, leading to biases in their results. Consequently, scenarios are expected to meet the main criteria for a triage, such as demographic characteristics, major complaints, vital signs and accompanying symptoms, and physical examinations, to simulate what nurses might encounter in triaging a real patient. Moreover, further studies are suggested to report mistriage, including undertriage and overtriage rates.
