KAP Questionnaire on MTS 2022 triage_raw data

Hypothesis: There is a strong correlation between triage knowledge and the execution of triage skills, as well as between triage knowledge and attitudes toward the revised MTS version.
Results: The median MTS scores for knowledge, attitudes, and practice were 69.6% (IQR = 60.9% - 73.9%), 40 (IQR = 34-42), and 70.0% (IQR = 60% - 80%), respectively. Significant differences in knowledge scores observed across socio-demographic variables, including age groups (p = 0.005), designation (p = 0.001), educational levels (p = 0.001), types of hospital (p = 0.008), awareness of MTS (p = 0.002), and participation in triage training (p = 0.018). Practice scores varied significantly with gender (p = 0.003), designation (p = 0.001), educational levels (p = 0.001), hospital type (p = 0.001), usage of MTS (p = 0.008), and MyTriage application (p = 0.02) . Post-Bonferroni correction analysis revealed significant knowledge, and practices score differences between nurses and EPs, as well as between AMO and EPs. Furthermore, respondents with doctoral degrees (91.3%, IQR = 91.3) and master's degrees (78.3%, IQR = 69.6 – 82.6) achieved higher median knowledge scores than those with lower qualifications.
