Another intervention during the sorting might be to give a couple of rescue breaths to a child or infant in arrest. While not stopping to do full CPR, a couple of rescue breaths to a child or infant takes less time than putting a tourniquet on an arterial bleed and can make a difference since so many children go into cardiac arrest because of respiratory issues (according to AHA BLS). Might be something to consider.
nice video, thanks. I have just a small addition. Patient with respiratory rate greater than 30 should be sorted as RED, but if he has a respiratory rate less than 10 he also should be sorted as red.
12-20 is considered normal, however, with triage, over 30 puts them into the immediate category without going further. Less than 30 moves you on to check capillary refill. Over 2 second capillary refill puts them into the immediate category without going further. Less than 2 sec capillary refill moves you into the mental status of the victim. If they can't follow simple commands this moves them into the immediate category, if they can, they are in the delayed category. I think he did a good job explaining the process.
nremt says 12-20 is normal. 20-28 is high but can be adequate. anything over 28 is considered inadequate ventilations so BVM is need it. but for the triage algorithm they chose 30 as the pivot point.
This is by far the best video on MCI triage,
Best triage video I ever seen 🌮🌮🌮🌮🌮

less than 10 sorted as black
Awesome

I thought 12-15 breathing was considered normal...30 ????? are you sure??
