Introduction
The objective of this study was to review the currently published literature on the topic of pediatric triage education. Method An integrative review of the literature was conducted using database searching and historical record review. Results A wide variety of pediatric triage educational methods exist, but studies with the highest-quality ratings most often used simulation programs or a standardized curriculum. Although there was a good deal of heterogeneity in terms of the outcomes measured, the accuracy of triage improved following educational interventions. Discussion Additional research is needed to compare different methods of pediatric triage education directly. Emergency nurses should be aware that pediatric triage is a high-risk event, and some educational methods may have advantages over others. In addition, although retention of pediatric triage skills is affected by the method and timing of pediatric triage education, emergency nurses should remain aware that improved pediatric triage skills could lead to improved pediatric outcomes, and target this as an area for further research. Unlabelled Box Contribution to Emergency Nursing Practice •The reviewed articles indicate that additional training in pediatric triage improves pediatric triage accuracy; however, only 1 article described a very large group of educators teaching the same content, making it difficult to reproduce the same results and difficult to draw generalizations outside the given populations. •Emergency nurses should recognize that undertriage of pediatric patients is a recurrent concern in the literature. •Studies indicate that general emergency nurses may triage pediatric patients less accurately than pediatric emergency nurses. •Current literature does not support a particular type of pediatric triage education. |
