Here is the link to the new Triage Scheme

http://www.cdc.gov/fieldtriage/pdf/DecisionScheme_Poster_a.pdf

Here is the MMWR that details the evidence behind the new scheme.

I would urge EVERYONE (not just the EMS medical directors) to read this

closely.  It will detail what you will need to know to REALLY understand this

scheme

Here is the MMWR Cont Education for the new scheme

BTW: I don't like the term scheme for this, but CDC is trying to avoid saying

this is the ONLY way and allow for local variations.  For example the state

EMS-MD from Utah said with the last one, they realized they should add skier vs

tree.  With the drought in Texas, maybe we need that one too for the trees

exposed by low lake levels? :-)
