Insights from research articles are to be applied in practice as best availableevidence. The present report is critical analysis of a qualitative research article relevant tonursing practice. The article presented by Broadbent et al., (2014) investigates theimplications of emergency department triage environment on triage practice for patientspresented with mental illness. The article had been published in Australasian EmergencyNursing Journal, which is the official journal of the College of Emergency NursingAustralasia (CENA) (journals.elsevier.com, 2017). The journal has recognized credibilitysince it is internationally peer-reviewed. Further, the authors are doctoral degree holdersfrom reputed schools of nursing, rendering integrity to the article. BackgroundAccording to Jelinek et al., (2013) Australian emergency departments (ED) are thefirst line of care services that patients with mental illness have access to. Considering thisfact, initiatives have been taken for bringing improvements in the provision of mental healthservice in EDs in Australia. Nevertheless, there is no certainty regarding a number of mentalhealth presentations to Australian EDs. It is known that ED triage nurses need to care forpatients with mental illness presenting at the ED until a clinician arrives. This is a seriousconcern for nurses at these departments at they are faced with challenges while makingdecisions that are in alignment with principles of optimal quality care delivery.

For ensuring that the research paper iscomprehensive and provides the readers with sufficient background information, theresearchers have attempted to present the background information and past literary work onthe same topic. The literature review of an article aims at identifying the gaps in existingliterature. The sole purpose of the literature review is to highlight the areas that have not beenaddressed in previous research and need immediate attention (Parahoo, 2014). The presentarticle, however, does not have a section on identified gaps in existing literature. Theresearchers in here have failed to present the particular areas that have remained unexploredin previous literature, presenting a limitation to the literature review. Nevertheless, theresearchers were successful in setting up the stage for the present study, and the research aimwas accurately outlined. The objective of the research to be undertaken was to undertake anin-depth exploration of the issues pertaining to triage assessment and suitable milieu requiredfor managing it. Methods Research design According to Nieswiadomy and Bailey (2017), the research design of a studydetermines whether the findings of the research would be able to address the researchquestions or not. It is important to decide on the appropriate research design aligned with theresearch objectives. The study by Broadbent et al., (2014) considered an ethnographicresearch design to understand the relationship between different aspects of triageenvironment and concerns and performance of triage nurse in ED. Lewis (2015) highlightthat ethnographic research design is advantageous for exploring or finding the influence of acertain phenomena on the concerned participants. The authors further highlight thatethnographic research is valuable for facilitating interaction between different groups ofpeople and observing the association between them. In real settings, such research design
