Definition
- When faced with a large number of casualties and limited medical resources, it is necessary to determine the priority of patients’ treatments based on the severity of their condition. This process is called triage, and it is appropriate in cases of disaster when most medical systems cannot always supply options in order to cope with the emergencies.
