Abstract

Background: Improving the quality of emergency nursing care requires enhancing triage competency through education programs that integrate the content of the Korean Triage and Acuity Scale, a triage system specifically developed for the Korean context. Thus, this study developed a competency-based triage education application (CTEA), based on the Korean Triage and Acuity Scale, and evaluated its effectiveness through usability testing.

Method: The CTEA used various teaching methods and game mechanisms, including lectures, case studies, and video-based scenarios, to improve triage competency.

Results: In the usability testing phase, the CTEA was refined through expert heuristic evaluation and user interviews conducted with the think-aloud method. Six themes were derived from the interviews, highlighting the need for a well-structured program with realistic scenarios, easy accessibility, gamification, functional improvements, and future triage educational applications.

Conclusion: These findings suggest that the CTEA is effective and satisfactory for users and can contribute to improving the triage competency of emergency nurses. [J Contin Educ Nurs. 2024;55(1):33-41.].

开发基于能力的分诊教育应用程序和基于韩国分诊和敏锐度量表的分诊培训可用性测试。

背景：提高急诊护理质量需要通过整合韩国分诊和敏锐度量表内容的教育项目来提高分诊能力，这是一种专门针对韩国情况开发的分诊系统。因此，本研究开发了一个基于能力的分诊教育应用程序（CTEA），该应用程序基于韩国分诊和敏锐度量表，并通过可用性测试评估了其有效性。方法：CTEA采用各种教学方法和游戏机制，包括讲座、案例研究和基于视频的场景，以提高分诊能力。结果：在可用性测试阶段，通过专家启发式评估和使用大声思考方法进行的用户访谈，对CTEA进行了改进。采访中提出了六个主题，强调需要一个结构良好的程序，具有现实的场景、易于访问、游戏化、功能改进和未来的分流教育应用。结论：CTEA是一种有效的、令人满意的方法，有助于提高急诊护士的分诊能力。[J Contin Educ Nurs.202x；5x（X）：xx xx.]。
