Prehospital Report (vs Triage? Hyperbolic Un Needed gadget

[Jeffery Hammond]

Didn't say I like them. Didn't say I support them. Only said we should
expect to see them and if so, use the information on them and don't consider
it an "insult."

I have long looked for any single study which demonstrates the practical  
value of the many different "disaster tags".     These have  been created
for 
sales and economic gain for those that sell EMS and hospital  agencies lots
of 
stuff they do not need.    I certainly hope that  those that support these
tags 
do not have any direct or indirect conflict of  interest.
