Triage in the ER is an important mechanism in the process of handling crises and disasters. Inaccuracies in determining triage results have an impact on the prospects for life expectancy and patient morbidity. One effort that can be done is to create an algorithm that is compiled through a computer system and is realized in the form of desktop-based applications, web services and mobile applications on smartphones. Clinical evidence related to the use of digital triage applications is still very limited.to provide an overview of the effectiveness of digital triage applications in increasing the accuracy of triage results based on evidence based research. This research is a literature study with a PRISMA approach. Systematic review using PICO. The search databases used are Google Schoolar, PubMed, Cochrane and Wiley Online Library with keywords triage, digital, desktop, application and accuracy. Critical appraisal of journals using The Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI). Based on the 7 research articles reviewed, it was found that the use of digital triage applications is quite easy to implement, appropriate in accordance with current technological developments and has proven to be effective in increasing the accuracy of triage results. The weakness is not all hospitals use a same database in their hospital information system so that some applications cannot be integrated. Some literature also reports that respondents take longer in time to use digital triage applications than the manual version. Digital triage applications such as TRIAGIST, Major Trauma Triage Tool and ESI Triage significantly increase the accuracy of triage results for triage officers.
