Objectives
Narrative objectives1
The aim of this study is to compare the accuracy of acuity decision between the ESI and the JTAS, and to clarify whether the ESI can be applied to the emergency department in Japan.

Assessment
Primary outcomes
The primary endpoint will establish the inter-rater reliability of the results on practice cases in each group. In addition, the secondary endpoint will establish the inter-rater reliability of the results on practice cases in each urgency criteria.
Key secondary outcomes
At first, the Visual Analog Scale which can be indicator of subjective evaluation will be employed to measure usability of each triage tool. Secondary, the total time taken to solve practice cases is related between the ESI and the JTAS.

Results
A quadratically weighted kappa was used tomeasure inter-observer reliability; the ESI was superior to the JTAS in concordance rate(0.82 and 0.74, respectively). For all rating categories, except level 5, the Fleiss' Kappa was higher in the ESI group. The ESI was more sensitive for category level 2, as an indication of high-risk situations, than the JTAS.

Baseline Characteristics
Eighteen JTAS-trained triage nurses, from 3 Japanese EDs, were randomly assigned to the ESI group or JTAS group. Nurses independently assigned triage scores to 100 emergency cases.
Participant flow
Four indexes were used: accuracy, each urgency accuracy of rating individual category-stage, answer time, and a subjective usability.
There were no significant differences in age, clinical experience, or JTAS experience between groups.

Outcome measures
As a scale to evaluate the agreement between evaluators in the decision of emergency, we verified with the Kappa coefficient, which is an index of inter-evaluator reliability.
