When assessing clients in a mass casualty incident, in which order would the triage nurse assign these clients to be seen by health care providers?

In a major disaster, the object is to get the greatest number of survivors treated as rapidly as possible. Critically ill clients who can survive with care are the highest priority to receive services quickly. Tension pneumothorax causes lung collapse and rapid hypoxemia, but can be successfully treated with insertion of a chest tube. Open fractures of long bones are frequently associated with arterial injuries that may result in hemorrhage, but rapid treatment with intravenous solutions and transport to surgery is lifesaving. A laceration of a large muscle is not immediately life threatening and wound care can be delayed. A wrist sprain will result in minimal disability and treatment can be delayed while clients with more severe injuries are managed. A client with a crushing head injury is likely to have had a severe traumatic brain injury and is not likely to survive. In the setting of mass casualty incident, this client would be the lowest priority to be managed.
