    Journal: Z Evid Fortbild Qual Gesundhwes; 2010; 104(5):411-3. PubMed ID: 20707979.
    Abstract:
    Triage ("sorting") will only be necessary in the setting of mass casualties and lack of sufficient paramedical and medical specialists as well as equipment. Triage means that the victims will be divided into four categories denoting urgency of treatment and chance of survival. The most experienced medical doctor or officer is responsible for the triage.
