Nurses working in the intensive care unit (ICU) must take responsibility for their decisions in caring for critically ill patients (Keshk et al., 2018). The most basic tool for independent decision-making is having professional autonomy, which is more necessary for ICU nurses than nurses working in other units (Rouhi-Balasi et al., 2020). Nurses' professional autonomy is the ability to have the right and responsibility to do their job based on their patient's needs and the freedom to implement those decisions (Georgiou et al., 2017).

According to the few studies on the factors affecting triage, the current study aimed at investigating the nurses and nursing students' knowledge about the triage of children. Objectives: Accordingly, the current study aimed at determining the level of knowledge of nursing students and nurses about pediatric triage and the impact of knowledge on the triage performance, in Guilan University of Medical Sciences, Iran.

The data were collected over one month in 2017, by means of a researcher-made questionnaire that included: Demographic characteristics (age, gender, degree, etc.) and knowledge level of staff. The validity of the questionnaire was determined by content validity and its reliability was measured by a test-retest method. After transferring the data into SPSS, statistical analysis was performed by descriptive and inferential statistical tests such as the Wilcoxon and Kruskal-Wallis. The level of significance was P < 0.05. Results: A total of 176 questionnaires were completed. A review of the responses given in the knowledge section revealed that 94.3% of the nurses and students were within the weak range. There was no significant relationship between demographic characteristics and triage knowledge in nurses and nursing students (P > 0.05). Conclusions: According to the current study results, knowledge of nurses and nursing students should be reinforced to better accomplish patient's triage. Since emergency nurses are among the most important staff in providing the prioritizing triage, therefore, nursing education programs should include triage courses that retain mastery in this scope.
