- Abstract
No existing mass casualty triage system has been scientifically scrutinized or validated. A recent work group sponsored by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, using a combination of expert opinion and the extremely limited research data available, created the SALT (sort-assess-lifesaving interventions-treat/transport) triage system to serve as a national model. An airport crash drill was used to pilot test the SALT system.
