Patients who have been categorized as DELAYED are still injured and these injuries may be serious. They were placed in the DELAYED category because their respirations were under 30 per minute, capillary refill was under 2 seconds and they could follow simple commands. But they could deteriorate. They should be reassessed when possible and those with the most serious injuries or any who have deteriorated should be top priorities for transport. Also, there may be vast differences between the conditions of these patients. Consider, for example, the difference between a patient with a broken leg and one with multiple internal injuries who is compensating initially. The second patient will need much more frequent re-assessment.
