The document discusses the SALT (Sort, Assess, Life-saving Interventions, Treatment/Transport) method for mass casualty triage. SALT involves first globally sorting patients into ambulatory, non-ambulatory who can follow commands, and non-responsive. Individual assessments are then conducted where life-saving interventions are provided and patients are assigned a category of immediate, delayed, minimal, or expectant based on their injuries and needs. The goal of triage is to provide the greatest good for the greatest number when resources are limited during a mass casualty event.
