START is a rapid triage system for prioritizing disaster victims Briefly, it is based around: - Is the patient ‘walking wounded’ -> triage green or minor - Is the patient breathing? - What is the respiratory rate? - Is there a radial pulse or normal cap refill? - How are they mentating? - Patients need reassesment, retriaging, and their triage category can change! #Diagnosis #Management #Disaster #START #MassCasualty #Incident #Triage #Algorithm #Protocol
