Background Triage is a key principle in the effective management of major incidents. However, there is an increasing body of evidence demonstrating that existing paediatric methods are associated with high rates of under-triage and are not fit for purpose. The aim of this study was to derive a novel paediatric triage tool using machine learning (ML) techniques.
