Abstract

List do redakcji There is no global consensus on the use of prehospital triage systems in mass casualty incidents [1-2]. However, most of the triage systems aim to cover four essential factors: speed, precision, fairness, and compatibility [3], of which the element of speed of decision-making is of importance, due to the large number of casualties that should be managed
