Organizations should support decisions to delay or deny treatment in those difficult cases when the absence of PPE poses significant risks to nurses and others so that health care workers can fulfill their duty to protect themselves and their duty to patients who need their care. 5 Triage guidelines use stringent clinical criteria and frameworks-usually developed in advance of public health crises-to guide a health care system's decisions about which patients are most likely to benefit during a crisis from the allocation of, for example, a scarce intensive care unit (ICU) bed, invasive ventilation, or extra corporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO).	./cache/cord-341815-of47ogow.txt	./txt/cord-341815-of47ogow.txt
