HUBUNGAN PENGETAHUAN PERAWAT DENGAN PELAKSANAAN TRIAGE DI IGD

Abstract

One of the services performed by nurses in the Emergency Department is triage. Triage serves to divide patients into several groups based on the severity of injuries experienced. Therefore nurses in the emergency unit are required to perform triage actions appropriately in a short time. One factor that influences the accuracy of triage actions of a nurse is the level of knowledge. The research design uses Literature Review, focusing on three databases including Google Schoolar and pubmed with the keywords used are "nurse knowledge" and "implementation of triage". From the Literature Review 10 research journals that have been analyzed produce that the triage knowledge of nurses in the emergency room is very important but besides that it must pay attention to length of work, ownership of certification, employment status, knowledge supported by work experience in the emergency room, accompanied by formal and non formal education such as then the training must also pay attention to attitude, skills, insight, motivation and commitment in conducting triage, pay attention to the response time or response time in triage assessment and comply with the existing regulations in the IGD. Most of the research from several journal reviews above found that most have good knowledge and in the implementation of triage is also good. Then it can be explained that the relationship between nurses' knowledge and the implementation of triage, the more nurse knowledge, the better the implementation of triage.
