Question

1. under the standard mettag triage system, a patient with a delayed status would receive which of the following colored tags and numbered priority?

green, priority 2.
green, priority 3.
yellow, priority 2.
yellow, priority 3.

Explanation:

In the METTAG triage system, a patient with delayed (non - urgent but needs care) status is tagged Yellow with priority 2. Green is for minor/ambulatory (priority 3), and Yellow - priority 3 or Green - priority 2 don't match the delayed status definition.

Answer:

Yellow, priority 2.
