Background: Emergency medical staff working in pre-hospital (PH-staff) may encounter mass casualty incident (MCI) events. In these events these medical personnel should perform triage. The objective of this study is to determine the skill and knowledge levels of PH-staff about Simple Triage and Rapid Treatment (START) triage. Methods: With this cross-sectional, observational study we analyzed data from 127 PH-staff. Data was collected with the survey tool (response rate = 74.7%). Kruskal-Wallis H Test, Mann-Whitney U Test, and Spearman's Correlation analyzes were used in the data analysis by means of SPSS Software. Results: Of the participants, 63% were men, the median age was 24 years, 88 PH-staff (69.3%) intervened in MCI events, and 37 PH-staff (29.1%) applied START triage. The skill score was 60% and the knowledge score was 72.5%. There was a weak positive correlation between knowledge and skill scores (r = 0.337, p < 0.01). The knowledge level of the emergency medical technicians (EMTs) and paramedics was higher than those from the other professions. Conclusions: The triage knowledge and skill levels of the PH-staff were not low contrary to the expectations. The triage knowledge and skill levels of professions that did not have pre-hospital training such as paramedics and EMTs were low. |
