This document discusses strategies for handling unplanned work that arises during a sprint, including absorbing unplanned items into the existing sprint backlog, breaking work up and carrying items over to the next sprint, replacing existing sprint backlog items with higher priority unplanned work, planning buffer time into each sprint to account for unplanned tasks, adjusting the sprint schedule to accommodate unplanned work, improving quality to reduce bugs, managing dependencies between work, and using agile frameworks like Scrum and Kanban to adapt to changing priorities.
