SIMFX® Support Cards are lightweight, tear and water resistant artist reference cards. They work as a stand-alone reference, or worn on a colour-coded triage lanyard they brief casualty actors directly, and an actor can carry several cards for a complex casualty profile.

Classification

Triage Classes

Each Support Card is classified by triage severity. The colour coding carries through from the card design to the physical lanyard, so casualty identification works at every stage of the exercise.

Immediate

Life-threatening conditions requiring urgent intervention. Casualties present with critical injuries, severe haemorrhage, respiratory distress, anaphylaxis, demanding immediate triage priority.

Major

Serious injuries requiring prompt treatment. Gunshot wounds, deep lacerations, and significant trauma that need skilled intervention within the exercise timeline.

Minor

Non-life-threatening injuries. Grazes, bruising, superficial burns, and minor lacerations. These casualties can often self-present and move under their own power.

Expectant

Casualties with injuries beyond the capacity of available resources. In a mass casualty scenario, these patients receive palliative care while resources are directed to survivable cases.

Each card pairs with a colour-coded triage lanyard, available separately on the kit page. Once the artist has finished application, the card and lanyard can be removed to enable triage allocation.
