Race against time: which triage method saves more lives in a crisis?

NCT ID NCT07436052

Summary

This study aims to find out which of two emergency triage methods works better for ambulance crews during a mass-casualty event, like a major accident or disaster. About 200 ambulance professionals and students in Switzerland will use either the 'Ten Second Triage' or the 'Sieve' method in realistic computer simulations with 34 virtual patients. Researchers will measure which method helps responders make more accurate and faster decisions about who needs immediate care.
