A useful addition to any researcher's methodological repertoire is the Delphi technique. This technique facilitates group communication to develop research items that are contextually specific. For the first time this method was utilised to develop a self-reporting triage survey tool that would explore current practice and begin to explore triage decision-making. The triage role is complex, often crisis-driven and demands speed and accuracy on the part of the triage nurse. This role involves patient assessment, initiating investigations, patient referral and management. The study used the Delphi technique to produce a triage survey tool that would assist in broadening our understanding of current triage practice within Australia.
