Triage is utilized in the healthcare community to categorize patients based on the severity of their injuries and, by extension, the order in which multiple patients require care and monitoring. The history of the emergency triage originated in the military for field doctors
- 3. SIMPLE TRIAGE ANDRAPID TREATMENT (START) • Simple triage and rapid treatment (START) is a triage method used by first responders to quickly classify victims during a mass casualty incident (MCI) based on the severity of their injury. • START relies on making a rapid assessment of every patients respiration , pulse, and mental status • The colors correspond to triage tags which are used by some agencies to indicate each victim's status, although physical tags are not necessary if patients can be physically sorted into different areas.

THE TRIAGE TAG •The triage designation is based on a colour system • Triage tags on each victim and tear off the colour until the colour at the bottom matches the victims classification • The person doing the initial START triage does not fill out the tag, Rather he/she only tears off the colour – strip and attaches the tag to the patient.
