简要总结
The Swiss Emergency Triage Scale (SETS) in used for triage in emergency departments in Switzerland, France and Belgium. No validated triage scale is actually used by Emergency Medical Service (EMS) providers. The objective of this project is to evaluate the reliability and performance of triage by EMS providers with the SETS.

结局指标
主要结局
Emergency level (1 to 4) accordingly to the SETS
时间窗: 1 day: all computeriez vignettes will be evaluated during a one-day session in November 2015.
Each participant will attribute an emergency level (1 to 4) to all clinical vignettes accordingly to SETS criteria. Reliability will be evaluated by computing inter-rater reliability using Kappa statistics.
次要结局
- Correct emergency triage level identification(1 day: all computeriez vignettes will be evaluated during a one-day session in November 2015.)
- Proper orientation(1 day: all computeriez vignettes will be evaluated during a one-day session in November 2015.)
