摘要：
Objective: The aim of this study was to assess levels of triage skill and associated factors among emergency nurses in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, 2017. Results: Above half of the participants (52.9%) had a moderate level of triage skill. A strong positive relationship was found between nurses' level of triage knowledge and skill (r =.68, p.01). Knowledge about triage, educational level and training experience had a significant relationship with triage skill with (B = 1.09, CI (1.41, 1.77), p =.002), (B = - 19.96, CI (- 30.208, - 9.715), p =.001), (B =.55, CI.16,.94), p =.006) respectively. This study revealed that most triage nurses had a moderate level of skills. Therefore, the ministry of health and hospitals should provide training and education to improve triage skill. © 2018 The Author(s).
