Abstract:
riage nurses should carry out the triage process simultaneously, quickly, and directly
according to the patient's complaints and avoid delays in treatment in critical conditions. The
phenomenon that occurs in the Emergency Installation is that the application of triage has not
been carried out optimally so that there are still many patients who do not get fast and
appropriate treatment according to their condition. The purpose of this study was to determine
the accuracy of nurse triage at the Emergency Installation of Bangil Pasuruan Hospital. The
design of this study is descriptive. The study sample was 30 nurses taken through total sampling
techniques. The instrument used is an observation sheet. The results showed that almost all
respondents were right in determining triage, namely 26 people (86.7%), and those who were
not right in determining triage were 4 people (13.3%). These results show that almost all nurses
have decided on triage appropriately. The proper triage decision-making is based on the
frequency of the breath, palpable pulse or not and the patient's state of mental status or
consciousness as well as the ability to walk to distinguish between yellow and green triage.
