Primes¶
- Allocation
- The selection criterion in modern START and SALT triage protocols (Lerner et al. 2008) is "expected survival benefit per unit care," a need-and-prognosis-weighted priority rule rather than first-come-first-served or equal split.
This sourceReviews START and develops the SALT mass-casualty triage protocol; the criterion is need-and-prognosis-weighted survival benefit per unit care. SUPPORTS the triage-criterion claim in the mass-casualty example.

- The same shape governs graceful degradation in software, mass-casualty triage's decision to forgo the expectant category, and the rhetorical concession of peripheral claims to consolidate an argument's center.
