Subject
Description
In the event of a large-scale disaster, either a no-notice event such as a natural disaster or a prolonged situation such as a pandemic, there is the potential for an overwhelming number of critically ill or injured patients. In these situations, certain medical resources may become scarce and prioritization of care may need to be considered.
