START All Risk® Triage Tags
START & JumpSTART Triage Tags for Structured Mass Casualty Triage
Disaster Management Systems (DMS) provides START and JumpSTART triage tags and patient tracking tools designed to support rapid assessment and prioritization during mass casualty incidents. These tags align with the START (Simple Triage and Rapid Treatment) triage algorithm for adult patients and the JumpSTART triage algorithm for pediatric patients, helping responders quickly categorize patients during the initial triage phase based on Respirations, Perfusion, and Mental status.
These triage tags help teams:
-
Quickly identify patient priority during initial triage
-
Document patient condition and treatments, when time allows
-
Support organized patient tracking and transport coordination
Used by Fire/EMS agencies, hospitals, healthcare systems, and emergency management teams, DMS START and JumpSTART triage tags help ensure structured triage and patient accountability during high-volume incidents. These tags are also widely used by hospitals and healthcare systems to support patient identification and prioritization during emergency department surge events and hospital disaster response.

START and JumpSTART Triage Systems
The START (Simple Triage and Rapid Treatment) system is one of the most widely used triage methods for managing mass casualty incidents. This rapid assessment process allows responders to quickly categorize patients based on their ability to walk, respiratory status, perfusion, and mental status. The goal of the START triage algorithm is to rapidly identify patients who require immediate care while allowing responders to move efficiently through large scenes.
JumpSTART is the pediatric adaptation of the START triage method and is designed specifically for evaluating infants and children during mass casualty incidents. Together, START and JumpSTART provide responders with a structured method for triaging both adult and pediatric patients during emergency response operations.
Common Uses for START Triage Tags
- Mass casualty incident (MCI) triage for adult and pediatric patients
- EMS and fire department disaster response operations
- Hospital emergency preparedness and surge planning
- Emergency management and disaster exercises
- Training programs for triage and disaster response
