*Triage – a system for assessing the order in which injuries are treated*

NHS Ten-Second Triage tool (TST)

The NHS Ten-Second Triage (TST) tool is a simple method used in major incidents to sort casualties in just a few seconds. It uses quick yes/no questions — such as whether a person can walk, talk, or has severe bleeding — to place them into priority groups for treatment. The tool helps first responders make fast, consistent decisions so that life-saving care reaches the people who need it most.
