N2  - A successful response to a mass casualty event must include trained personnel, adequate facilities, and abundant supplies. The medical staff must strictly adhere to triage and classification standards. Landstuhl Army Regional Medical Center (LARMC) triaged, within 30 minutes, 120 casualties from the Ramstein Air Show Disaster--14 patients were admitted, 86 were stabilized and transferred to German facilities, 16 were treated and released, and 4 were expectant. There were 6 subsequent transfers to LARMC. Seven patients were operated upon that day, 7 patients were eventually transferred to Brooke Army Burn Unit, and 3 patients underwent subsequent delayed reconstructive surgery.<p />  <p>Language: en</p>
